Hello all. Just received my unit from Woot today and have been excited about it for days. I charged it for about 3 hours and then got anxious to play around and see it in action. I unplugged it and slid the button to on. I get a green light that turns on and....nothing. My LCD screen remains black and the E-ink side static page remains. I wait, thinking there is initial boot time, nothing happens for 2-3 minutes. I turn it off and on again, green light, nothing else. Tried resetting, still no luck. I try a few more times and got frustrated. I fear I got a dud.

Is there any troubleshooting I should know about or any advice? Thanks in advance.
