PRS-505 dead?

My 2 week old PRS-505 has stopped working. I had connected it to the computer to transfer some files using Calibre. Instead of the screen showing the USB Connected message it very faintly showed an arrow in the middle. The left half of the screen is faintly grey and the right half is white. It's still like that now. I can't get it to switch on. I've tried a soft reset. Nothing changes on the screen. The LED flashes yellow for a while and when I plug it into the PC the LED turns red, but then goes out after about half an hour. When it's connected to the computer I can transfer books and view them from the reader on the PC.

Has anyone any suggestions?

Dave
