Fried - will not recharge

Hi Guys

Can anyone help please?

I have just come back from holiday where I was reading my T1 in the sunshine. It must have got too hot as a warning message flashed up about the temperature and it shut down. I put it away and now that I'm home in cooler weather, I am trying to resurrect the reader.

Is simply will not charge. I can use it whilst plugged into mains but the minute I umplug it, it freezes with the low battery warning.
I have done hard resets, soft resets, left charging overnight on wall socket, tried plugging into the computer where it is not recognized.....

I'm at the point of opening it up to try to replace the battery but do not really want to do so.

Does anyone have any ideas or has the sun killed the battery circuit?

Thanks
