My Kobo Touch bricked itself.

I've tried the paperclip reset, and charging it up overnight, no good.

I'm wondering if the SD Card image method might work, if someone can send me an image.

I pulled the card out and looked at it with my PC, it detected three partitions - two unformatted, and a third with all the Digital Editions books seemingly intact, it scanned with no errors. Does anyone know whether the two unformatted partitions indicate an error, or is that how it is meant to appear - maybe they have Kobo OS/boot data on or something?

. . . we have bought a new Libra 2 (ooooh, sound and lights!) so this is not an urgent project, just would be nice if we could resurrect it.
