I recharged via a plug charger and the same thing happened. I was a bit perplexed and decided to power the device on and off again (I usually just go into sleep mode). And this has fixed the problem, it now works as it did before. I can only presume that the processor was working while in the sleep mode and this was causing the battery drain. By shutting down and 'rebooting' the device it was no longer having to process the errant thread. Its all guesswork though.
I also had the same problem you had with my 650. After charging it (in standby) with my cell phone charger the red light would go out and I would have 4 bars. The next day it would be down to one or two bars. I powered it completely off, recharged it and so far it's working perfect now. So far it looks like you have found the solution to this problem.
