Hi everyone,
Just bought my first e-reader, a pocketbook 360. Thought I would update the firmware, so I bought a microSD card, copied the .bin file and followed the directions. I got the message that everything uploaded fine, but then when I restarted nothing happened. I left it plugged in for about an hour, then tried to turn it on, but again...nothing. Every once in a while when I try to hit the power button I get a black screen, but it doesn't boot. I also tried to reset everything by hitting the reset button next to the battery...but that doesn't work either. I thought about removing the battery, but its plugged in pretty good. Any suggestions??? It's a bit frustrating as I bought it for my upcoming trip...
