The double-power was because I was going into sleep mode then changed my mind and decided to power the unit off, so I hit power again while it was entering sleep mode. I was able to power the KT on again with no problems, but was given the language selection, setup, etc.

I had to update nearly all of my settings, i.e. browser favorites/homepage, font settings, sleep/power preferences, etc. I think the only thing that it remembered was saved wireless networks. All my books and data were still there though.
This has happened to me twice - once a few weeks ago (1.9.11) - I had done the same thing with the power switch and then the Touch froze with a white screen and again just today (1.9.12). Today's was weird because somehow I managed to select a word (I guess my finger must have been resting on the screen while I was reading) and then the Touch just froze. Putting it into sleep mode and then waking didn't help - I had to turn it off and then back on. Once I went through all the setup procedure (and reset all my settings) all was OK again. Weird.
