My Sony Cybershot DSC-W350 won't turn on?

Now, it will at times, randomly shut off with the lens still out. And when you try and turn it back on, it will turn on so long as you have your finger on the power button. But, whenever you take your finger off the power button, it shuts off.

It appears to be bipolar, because there are times where it will work for 5 minutes or so with no problems whatsoever, but then it will decide to shut off again and leave the lens unprotected. I've tried everything to fix it and I have no idea what's wrong with it.

In addition, when you shake the camera, you can hear something moving inside. I'm unsure as to whether this happened before or not, but I assume that this is vital information.



Additional Details
As of now, it isn't working at all. It will turn on so long as your finger is holding the power button down, but when you take your finger off the power button, it shuts down again. I have no idea what's wrong.
 
I had the same problem. Blaming my son for breaking the camera, I replaced it. When I tried the new charged battery in the "busted camera" and it worked. Bought a replacement battery at Radio Shack and its been working fine. Hope this helps.
