blinking green light = dead battery solution: let it charge for a couple of hour before you try again

When the PlayBook is not connected to the charger and you press the power button, you may have to hold it down for close to 10 seconds before you see the PlayBook start up. You should see the the LED light turn red for a few seconds to indicate that the PlayBook is coming on. Then the logo appears, then the background image appears, but it takes 30 seconds or more for that to happen, so BE PATIENT. If the LED is blinking green when plugged into the charger, that means it's charging. Let it sit on the charger for a few hours so it gets fully charged.

I rarely turn my PB off, instead just tap on the battery icon and put it in Standby.
