Hi

I have a Kindle 3g Wifi device which one day decided to not wake up. I have tried sliding the power switch and holding for 15 seconds and it seems to reset itself (by following the green lights) but the screen saver stays the same. I've recharged it with both USB cable and from the adapter but still nothing. My computer still recognizes it when I plug it into the computer and the hard drive seems to work fine.

I have spoken with Amazon CS and tried everything they suggested but it seems it does not want to awake from its deep sleep,so they are sending me a new one.

Because I'm not in America for some reason they didn't want the old one shipped back, they told me to dispose of it correctly. I don't want to just throw out this kindle just yet because it seems so wasteful and I feel there should be a solution. . . . and then my kids can have a kindle to read.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know before I add it to the land fill.

Thanks
