Do you use a memory card? I had constant problems with the charge holding on my 600 (which I used with a 4GB memory stick). When I upgraded to the 650, for one reason or another, I didn't use the memory stick right away. I was so happy to see it hold its charge as long as I remembered the 505 doing (which I used SD cards with, by the way).

Then in the last week or so, I inserted my memory stick (cleaned out, but otherwise the same one) and loaded it up with books. And my reader's going from 4 bars to 1 over night. And charging (where the red light turns off and the display shows fully charged) seems to happen too quickly.

Maybe I have a bad card? Or maybe the reader eats energy with a card? I'll probably try swapping a new memory stick to see if there's any possibility I just have a bad card...
