device turning on and off....

By this I don't mean the scheduled turn off. I just received my blackberry today. I got home and started charging it right away....It's only been on the charger for about 10 minutes but the screen will turn on with the hour glass for maybe 2 seconds, then turn right off and the LED will blink red once. The phone will be off for another 3 or 4 seconds then repeat this process. Is it because the phone was completely dead before receiving it and it just needs to charge for a few hours? I'm a bit worried now. :confused:


update: nevermind. turned on. sorry guys! got a bit nervous. if a mod can delete this thread, please do!
