I had my Kindle on this morning, it was working just fine, took it with me when I went to Mom's for brunch today. As I was leaving, I tried waking it up to read on the subway and it would not wake up. I slid the slider several times. It was fully charged as of yesterday but all I could think of was maybe I accidentally left the TTS on when I put it in my bag, so I came home, plugged it in and slid the slider again. Nothing. I did a Google search and it suggested holding the slider back for a full minute. I did this and thought it did nothing, but five minutes later I looked over at it again and it was on. And appears to be behaving normally again. I am going to leave it plugged in for a few hours just to be sure, but what happened? Should I be worried?
