I think my problems may have been down to two things:
1. Possibly there was a bit of damp inside (the manual warns about this causing the symptoms I saw).
2. It was not sufficiently charged (despite the little red light going out).
I'm going to leave it charging overnight and we'll see in the morning.
I thought I would post this in case anyone else has similar problems. I was all set to return it to the store tomorrow. Probably won't now.

Did you see 'Charge complete' message on the screen after PRS-650 is fully charged?
If not, I think your PC must have been in a state of not providing any current to your PRS-650. This also explains why the little red light turned off, not because it was fully charged, but maybe because your PC simply stopped supplying the power.
