Hi,

Since last week my PRS-505 will not turn off when I use the slider switch. Neither does it go to sleep after 60 minutes as it's supposed to. It just keeps running till the battery gets consumed.

All other functions are working and I can even shut down the reader by using the advanced settings. I can then use the slider switch to start the reader so I am guessing it's not a problem with the hardware switch.

One other point to note is that while it's turned on it is consuming battery at a very fast rate. A fully charged battery drains out over night even if I am not turning any pages.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Amit
