A hard-reboot attempt not doing *anything* is fairly suspicious. Keep in mind the long-long-press is actually a hard *poweroff*, not a hard *reboot*. You'll want to follow with a tamer long press to actually power it back on.

What happens if you plug it to a *wall* charger?

@arooni: Irrelevant, if the device is in suspend or hibernation, well, it's in suspend or hibernation, it's dead to the world until awoken.
