Touch Kobo *not* turning on... - Page 2

The reset seems to have cleared the problem. It's a pity these things aren't more reliable, having large print would be nice for aged parent but at 3,000 miles away the support problems would be too high.

Same thing is happening to me. I don't have a cable on me to test it on a computer. Pin reset does jack all.

Interestingly, of the 3 Kobo Touches I've experienced, all 3 have done this. Anyone else get the impression that the kobo touch is just a really, really shitty piece of hardware? "Read anywhere!" -- if you're lucky enough to have a device that works consistently. *shrugs*
