It's permanently in airoplane mode, so the wifi is off.

Yes, I do wait for the light to switch to green. A couple of nights ago I gave it an over-night charge, and it's still having problems.

I'll contact Amazon. Thanks for the quick response.

One thing I did wonder was whether this was a problem with the battery indicator. I know when the 505 was new that it needed several battery cycles (draining and charging) for the indicator to be reliable. But that was a long time ago, ereader-wise.
