Went to use my Touch this morning and it was locked on a screensaver picture. The On/Off button did not work. The 'N' button did not work. Nothing I did seemed to work.

I thought my Touch was dead!

It turned out that the Touch had no charge and that the A/C USB plug was bad! (I rarely use a 'puter's USB port to charge my Touch)

Fortunately we're a two-Touch household, so I used the other A/C USB plug and got the message "Your Touch has too low a charge, please wait 15 minutes" message.

I'll just charge on the desktop or netbook boxen from now on.

oh, and FWIW: the new Amazon 'Fire' does not inspire me to switch...

E-Ink, rules, OK?
