The problem is with firmware, not the device or charger.
Mine 602 behaves exactly the same way and I am using it for a second week already (didn't need to recharge it second time yet).
In addition I would recommend to install the latest version of firmware 2.0.2 (if you haven't done it yet) from here.
Thank you for letting me know about this issue. I'll try unplugging it (once I get back home) and see the device actually works.

Unfortunately, I do not know how to upgrade the firmware, and I cannot find instructions for doing so anywhere on the manual, or anywhere on the main website.

I found the instructions for upgrading firmware for 301 and 360:

Do I follow the same steps for my 602? I have no idea how I would get the files on my computer to the memory card, since my computer doesn't have a slot for those things.

Also, I've been having issues with the wifi.

At home, we have a hidden network, with no security. I keep getting an "unknown error."

Is there a firmware issue with the wifi as well?
