The battery was being drained overnight because from standby it was flickering rapidly from standby screen to page to standby screen over and over - fast enough that the eye didn't register an image of the page, just a bright flash for a split second every few seconds.
Unfortunately, it started to do the same thing again a couple of weeks ago. This time it was immediately returned to Sony (via Waterstones customer service as it was still under warranty) and I will be collecting it from my local branch of Waterstones tomorrow.
I hope the problem has been fixed for good as the warranty expired on 25 November - the day it was sent back for repair!
PS You may notice from my stats on the left there that I also have a Kobo Touch - just purchased last week so I could continue to feed my e-reading habit!

I sent mine back 3 times, on First return go the same reply as yours ('ornament assembly' had been replaced) second time battery had been replaced, third time Sony repair ( Wales )said that unable to repair . So I was sent a T1 to replace it.
