Okay, finally got it up and running. It was on the charger for approx. 15 minutes with no change. I tried a hard reset (30) seconds with it both unplugged and plugged in - still no joy. I waited a bit longer and tried the hard reset again; this time the Fire started cycling on, but the charge light didn't come on (the battery reading stated 90%), even after making sure the plug was securely inserted. The light finally came on (green) about five minutes later. Hope this was the extent of my first-adopter snafus...
