My PRS-T2 is constantly telling me I have a low battery and shutting itself off. It was doing this every few page turns, but now I can't even open a book.

I know the battery is full as I left it plugged into the wall over night, and plugged into my computer for several hours as well. The battery indicator reads full, and I can click "Applications" and look around at notes, and settings. I can even pull up the EULA, and turn the page dozens of times without the device shutting down.

Once in a while it'll work fine until I put it to sleep, and wake it up and start reading again, then it'll tell me "Low Battery" after a few page turns. It then keeps doing this every page turn or two every time I restart.

I've tried doing a hard reset, but that doesn't seem to help, the problem keeps occurring.

My T2 is Version 1.1.00.15240

Any ideas as to what I could do? Or is this just junk now?
