Hi! This is my first post! I bought my Kobo at the end of April, set it up, and began to buy books online. Shortly after that my troubles began--it would freeze and I could not move forward, backwards or even shut it down. So then I would reset it with a paper clip. Or many times, I could not start it up until I had slid the on/off button seven or eight times, then about two pages in, it would freeze again!! The other day, it turned off and I cannot get it to turn on again! I've tried plugging it into the computer to recharge it(?) -- no response. I used the old paper clip trick-- no response. Is this ereader broken or is there something I'm missing?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
