Hope that you have got it on by now, but if not, try connecting the power to the TE and a wall outlet. Do a soft reset while the machine is charging. See if it powers on then. Allow it to charge good.

Same thing happened to me. I just plugged in the charger and did a reset, and it works again now.

Same here, at least it happened only once! :)
Does anyone know why it happened? :confused:

I think it has something to do with the fact that the T/E's battery should be charged as frequently as possible, as opposed to letting it run down all the way. Trickle charging is best. I have my T/E plugged in whenever I'm at my desk or not using it. I did have it run all the way down when I first got it and it wouldn't come on, even when I plugged it back in. Finally, I did a soft reset while charging and it came back on. Incidentally, I've read on another board that doing a soft reset while charging resets something with the battery, giving you a better charge (if you are experiencing poor battery performance). I have to say, after I did that, my battery charge did seem to improve.
