Yes, okay, I rebound a button to sleepmode and tested it last night. I put it in sleep mode, brought it out with the power button (the only way I think). This brought back the problem. The reader kept flicking back into sleep-mode. I turned the device off and in the morning it showed the screen asking me if I wanted to turn it off. I said no. The battery had been drained down to two bars. This is the original problem.

So thanks for your input. At least it's helping me get a clearer conception of the problem. It seems to be a combination of the power button and sleep mode. I do suspect a hardware fault.

I have done factory resets etc, but that doesn't make any different. I doubt removing PRS+ will make any difference but I should try. Also I would like to actually reflash the OS rather than do a factory reset, but I'm not sure if that can be done.

Anyway...it's not a total show-stopper. I just leave it on. The battery doesn't run down much faster, and I switch it off at night. I wonder how much power sleep-mode really saves. I don't see that much difference.

My advice to x50 users is to avoid the power button as much as possible. It appears to have a design flaw.
