New T68 doesn't turn on?
I had a problem with random reboot loops with my T68, so I sent it back to Artatech via Amazon, where I had bought it from. I had a refund, and then ordered a new one from Artatech. It arrived today.

When my first one came, as soon as I connected it to a power source, it turned on. This one does not. The light on that button below the screen comes on when the device is connected to a power source, but the device doesn't turn on. I am hoping that the device just needs charging, but I am very concerned that I have an expensive brick on my hands. I can send it back to Artatech, of course, if need be.

Has anyone else run into this when you first got the T68?

Edit: Well, all of a sudden, my T68 came to life and started working. I'm downloading the OTA update now. I'll see if my luck continues to improve.
