I had the same problem with my old 505. I replaced the battery but unfortunately it was the charging circuit that had 'gone west'. I got a replacement battery from Hong Kong via http://www.batteryupgrade.co.uk/?gcl...FQRd4wodFA_vUw

Replacing the battery is not for the faint-hearted, mind you, and requires considerable disembowellment of the reader. You can download a copy of the service manual here: http://aldus2006.typepad.fr/files/prs600.pdf
