Permissions required to read from /dev/hidraw0

Is there any permissions tag to request access to /dev/hidraw devices? ADB shows it is owned by radio:radio

./adb shell ls -l /dev/hidraw0

crw------- radio radio 251, 0 2011-07-25 18:33 hidraw0

FileReader input = new FileReader("/dev/hidraw0"); throws a FileNotFoundException 

"/dev/hidraw0 (Permission denied)"

I am using Android version 3.2 on a Motorola Xoom wi-fi tablet.

Thanks

No, that's absolutely not allowed to applications.
