My 650 has recently developed a bug where it won't shut down properly, keeps trying to shut down when I didn't ask it to (and then doesn't shut down properly!) and drains a full battery charge in a day even when 'off' or in sleep mode.

The problem is common and has been asked about quite a lot on these forums. There is no solution. It's 14 months old, so out of warranty. I have an expensive dud. Shame, because I loved it. Oh, well. I've learned my lesson. Don't spend more for quality *cough*

So my question is, what do I do? Can I trade it in at the Sony store for a rebate on a T1?
