I'm resurrecting this thread because I'm experiencing the same things - and this has happened since I used Calibre for the first time about a month ago.

Within a few days of connecting to calibre for the first time, the stand-by slider started working intermittently. Also hit-or-miss are all the other buttons; < > ,Home, re-size and Options will either put the reader into stand-by OR carry out the task they should do on a seemingly random basis. The battery also seems to need charging every single day.

I stopped connecting my reader to Calibre as that was the only thing I'd done differently in the 9 months I've had the machine, did several soft re-sets, 2 hard re-sets and it is improving a little - before the re-sets things were worse with the reader switching itself on and off randomly.

Is the use of Calibre coincidence? I've read most of the discussions about recharging and asked a question of my own to ascertain that I was charging mine correctly.

Then I found this thread ... did Sony ever say what the problem was with your reader, Amalthia?
