Playbook is dead .. help !!!
My playbook is dead... I cant even turn it on. Well not entirely. If i leave it plugged in for a while, and hold the power button (while its plugged in), the playbook will boot up.
However, the moment I pull out the power cable the playbook dies. Its frustrating that I cant do anything on the playbook. Based on all the rumours on CB of the impending 2.1, I feel a bit left out.
Now before anyone mentions what I may or may not have done, please see the following.
I have wiped the playbook clear via desktop manager, with the hopes that it may remedy the situation. However, it hasn't resulted in the desired result. My playbook is basically 'wiped clean', however, the moment the power cable is unplugged it just 'dies'.
I did indeed look at all the threads on CB and have done everything expected. Unfortunately, I have not achieved the desired results. Sadly, the playbook sits on my desk as a VERY expensive ( i bought the playbook full price at launch) paper weight.
Is there anything I can do to bring it back to life? Sadly, its over a year and warranty is no longer in play. There might be an extended warranty via my credit card but am not sure.
Should i just go out and buy a new playbook? or start contemplating the competition?
any help would be appreciated.
Cheers !!!
