I had something like this happen today too, but I wasn't as rigorous as the earlier posters. It didn't come on, so I plugged it into my computer using a handy microUSB cable (not the Kobo-supplied one) and the light on top went green but it still wouldn't come on.

After a little while I played idly with the power switch for a bit (sometimes holding it, sometimes just moving it quickly) and during this time noticed that it'd start powering up again.

Once it'd powered back up, it agreed that its battery was full.

So yeah. Some kind of "really very very powered off"? I'm still on the 1.9.6 firmware if it matters. Going to upgrade to 1.9.8 tonight.
