Thank you for the replies.
The battery was fully charged (measured with a DMM) and the device off (pressing the reset button did not trigger boot as seen by the blinking power LED).
I connected the device to the PC, and the power LED blinked green, then blue, then green, then blue and then a couple of green flashes. The PC still does not recognize the device, and the display on the device also does not change.
While connected to the PC, I monitor the battery with a DMM and the battery is taking a charge
