Things are worsening : PE went to hibernation this morning. When I waked it up, the LCD screens came back, but completely white. (all pixels on). I shut it off/on several time, LCD screen still come back as completely white. the thing sems alive : the power LED is green, and it even make some noise. I think I was able to unlock it by sliding at the approximate place of the lock icon. Reset switch does not do any good, and there's no way to remove the battery of a Pocket Edge.
I am afraid that it looks like a fried GPU.... PE is only 5 weeks old !
I emailed the support service, will phone them too later on ...
I'll let you know of the developments ...
