I really weird thing happened to me this morning. Got up, turned on my computer, plugged in my TX connector to do some charging and everything was fine and dandy. TX charging and with some surfing complete, I decided to shutdown. TX was still pluged in. Did some stuff around the room and came back to unplug my TX to head out and the thing was turned off. I tried to turn it on and "IT WOULDN"T TURN ON!!!". I then unpluged it and tried to turn it on and it still wouldn't turn on! I was thinging, man what did I do! I tried punching everything, the power button, all four app buttons, the navigator buttons but my TX was still dead! Then I thought well hell, I haven't hit the reset button maybe I'll try that and WOW, it came back to life. The Palm logo appeared and the loading bar started. Another few seconds, and my TX was back. Man, I have to tell you I don't know what happened but that sure was freaky. Anyone else expirence this?

Have you installed a third party app/hack which doesn't get along with Blazer? The original Graffiti maybe?

... and the other way round. I connect my desktop on work with the TX and the PC does a hardreset... until solving the problem i sync via bluetooth =(

Hi Dick Tracy, No, nothing I can think of except maybe ZL but that would be weird. Anyways, forgot and did the same thing eariler today and it did not go dead. Kept on charging. Woooooosh, man that was weird. Glad to be back to normal for now, though.

I do not think it has something to do with a third party app. Perhaps, battery was drained completely earlier

Experienced it once, but not with a TX. I have a T|E and it kind of happened once with it.

I simply refused to turn on and after a few minutes it was ok. It wasn't connected to my computer then, though.

I happened almost a year ago, but since then it has been working flawlessly... :confused:

I think, now I know how people who saw something weird (UFOs and such) and can't take a picture to prove feel... :D
