I suspect it is to late and your only easy choice is to turn it off and see what happens. It will probably restart and do the firmware upgrade.

But, you could try connecting to a computer and to see if it that wakes it. If it does, you can delete the firmware upgrade files from the device and disconnect. Or you could open the device, pull the SD card out and put it in a PC to delete the file.

As to pulling the firmware, I suppose it depends on how many devices fail to update. It might be a tiny number and they think it is worth the risk. We don't know. We can't use the reports here as an indicator. For all we know, these are the only people that it has failed for and that there are hundreds of thousands of people that had no problems.
