For a couple of months, my Sony PRS-505 was doing okay. I went about 4 months without reading it, and then I tried to turn it on, but it wouldn't work.

Suspecting it was battery-related, I left it plugged in for about two days, but to no avail. I also plugged the USB cable in the the computer with the software updating tools, hoping to be able to refresh the flash, but the reader is unresponsive.

I have tried to reset it (push in pin, slide power cable, etc), but that doesn't work here either.

Any suggestions?
