When I check it, it will tease me, and show 3/4 battery life, but as soon as I open the book to read, the battery warning pops up, and the indicator has gone back to empty! HELP
Best way is with a wall charger using the psp (round) plug. USB ports/cables/chargers are not all the same and some will actually discharge the reader.

Once the Reader gets into the state you describe it may take several hours of charging for it to be able to reset. (This happened to me once with my 505)
