PB 360 RIP

Hmf. My PB 360 is RIP.

It doesn't respond to anything, and e-mail to service@pocketbook.de (http://www.pocketbook.de/support/) is bounced. Anyone know where they *can* be reached?

I've lately had freezes & spontaneous reboots both with firmware version 14.2 that was preinstalled, and with the later 15.2 firmware. Downgrading back to 14.2 didn't help either.

It's not a matter of corrupt ebooks, since the device freezes or spontaneously reboots even when I'm in the main menu or browsing folders.
It may have to do with an empty battery, although the battery indicator never shows it less than at least half full (and fully full most of the time), and if the battery IS empty, it's definitely broken, since I generally don't use it enough to drain it.

And as of now, the device seems to be dead altogether. I can find no way of getting it back to life. Trying to reset didn't work, even after I expressly charged it for a whole night. It did some kind of half boot, and what I now have is an empty screen with the text 'books' somewhere halfway and an empty square with the text 'configuration' in the bottom right hand corner.
