my prs-650 drives me crazy

Hello

I bought my sony last year and I could not be happier for the first 4 months.
Than the problems started. Unexplained battery drain (6-12hours), software glitches (could not put the reader in the sleep mode, instead kept opening random books, changing wallpapers, displaying message: do you want to completely power off (shutdown device) etc.). I updated software, it helped but only for a while, I did numerous soft and hard resets. I sent the reader to Sony Service, they sent it back saying that it could not find any faults. I removed all memory cards, while charging I reject the device first before disconnecting.
Now after another hard reset I cannot switch it on, after soft reset it cannot go in sleep mode, again displays message about powering off. I think I have lost my patience.

Now I am at the point either of sending the reader back to Sony Service (but I am worried they will ignore the problem again) or just selling it on Ebay. The second option is very compelling but I would not feel well selling device not functioning properly.

Is there any hope to rekindle my love with sony ?

Any advice and ideas welcomed
