I haven't had this kindle for very long and I've never even hooked it up to my computer yet, just used it for reading a few downloaded books and subscription blogs. It was fully charged when I unplugged it this morning and it turns on fine, but everything on my home screen that I click on gives a message of "unexpected error" and returns to the home screen when I click the only option "close". I've never rebooted my kindle before so I did a google search to find out how to and saw a message about holding the sliding switch for 20 seconds. That shuts of the screen completely, but when I turn it back on it's still gives the same message no matter what book I try to select. The internet and kindle store seem to work fine, but I can't read my books. Any suggestions?
