I just bought the wifi Kobo from Borders earlier today. I set up Calibre with it and load a few RSS feeds on it, seemed to work okay. Then I tried to load a few epub books I have and next thing I know is it's stuck on the Kobo Ereading: anything. anyplace. screen for over 2 hours. The bottom bar moves but nothing happens.

It also won't mount to either of my 3 PC's, or my Mac

At this point I start to do some research and try to get it into upgrade mode. I do the hard reset then push the center button as well as the center button plus menu button and when I do that the bottom bars freeze at 5 bars of the eReading:.... screen instead of a full load, but it still won't mount to any computer and the CTRL/CMD - Shit - U feature does nothing.
