One more Sony Librie hack for the day....Having to plug the librie to the AC power adapter AND the USB port seems kinda stupid since the AC adapter is outputting 5.2V, nearly the same than a USB port.So I decided to get rid of the adapter and get the required power from the USB. It is very easy to do but you will have to cut the power connector from the original adapter. To do it just follow this scheme... Link.
