Though I was going nuts...

Have the same upgrad/bad battry indicator. Before the upgrade the guage did correctly.

After the upgrade it like I leave it on. Been busy so its been sitting for long periords. It drops about a bar a week or so under no use. Though it was the SD card eating power but keep it out unless reading from it. And stll does this.

Tonight was going to read a bit and notest it went from three to two then one just flipping a few pages.

A soft reset seem to kick it back up. But

Trying the charge while on trick...

If this does not fix it will contact Sony. Have the extra coverage on it.

ADDED:

Hum.... Wonder if in the updates there a bit of bad code that is drawing more power when on or off? Because why alter a section thats works? Yes I have written software for sale. And you do your best NOT to break things...
