And I bricked it.
I tried using Porkupan's SD Rescue Package and nothing much happened (as in everything was unchanged). I couldn't get putty to connect (I'm not sure why), and I accidentally reformatted something (a window popped up and I clicked the format instead of cancel).

Now The reader does the 'opening book' thing, hits the end, the light keeps flashing, but nothing happens.
I tried putting the rescue package on my SD card and using Home/Menu and nothing happens (the sdcard's LED never flashes). Ditto rupor's recovery console.

Without having a way to get the reader to access the SD card, I can't think of a single way to recover this.
