I came home laid out in the hammock turned on my Kindle(3)...Nada nothing...The screen saver is there as usual with Mr. Jules Verne's stern face, but it wont turn on...Brought it in the house, plugged it in, no orange light, no green light NOTHING...Now what ....?? My book collection is on Caliber at the Apple Store, who know when I get it back....Oh well...Hmm maybe go look at a SONY 950, if this thing wont fire up....

Any magical resets anyone knows of...??
Have you tried the reset button (pinhole on the back)?
Have you tried plugged into the mains adapter rather than into a computer USB port?

After that, I think a call to Amazon Customer Service is the next step. But most likely it's just completely out of power.
