The screen did not change except for the light going off, but then I held the power button down again, and it rebooted. Everything was still there, so I didn't need to reload anything. Next time it happens, I will try rapidly pressing the power button to see if that works. Sorry I can't help you, but at least you're not alone. (I've read that holding down one of the page turn buttons while pressing the power button will reset a frozen Forma, but that doesn't work either.) Good luck, and I hope somebody here will have some suggestions.
The rapidly pressing the button for around 10 times, then waiting and hitting it again worked for me.
