Whoa, didn't expect to see so many replies after being gone for a few days.
The bright side is that my Kobo is turning on again. I had it charged for almost an entire day earlier this week and it wouldn't turn on, so I just gave up, unplugged the adapter to make way for other things (heh) and left my Kobo sitting around doing nothing. I decided to randomly plug it in again today and it suddenly turned on.
The downside is that I still can't power off the device using the power button.
I'm also still stuck at the setup screen. It connects to WiFi, a "Check for Updates" notification pops up, and immediately after selecting "Check Now", bam, "Tablet Upgrade Error."
I've also tried the volume up + power button reset countless times, with the device both off and on.
And I've pressed the reset button on the back of the device (with the backing removed) a bunch of times, which successfully resets the Kobo, but just leads me back to the initial setup screen.
I've done just about everything, so I'm ready to give up.
Fortunately, I already do have a Kindle, so it's not like I've been spending the holidays without an e-reader. But it would still be nice to be able to play around with this thing... :P
