Mobility Site - View Single Post - won't reset, freezes on boot- what else to try?

Hey guys using WM5 on x50v for a few months now and went to turn it on yesterday and WM5 freezes with 7/8th of the "load bar" stuck. No matter how long I leave the device on to boot, it hangs during boot.

I tried:

-holding power + reset button and resetting factory settings
-Removing battery
-Sync with comp (obviously wont' cause it doesn't finish booting)
-removed all SD/CF cards and repeated the reset process as above

Right now I took the battery out and am hoping that draining the backup battery will somehow do something to reset it even further.

So far, nothing has worked to get this thing to boot. I'm not sure if I'm still under warranty- if at all possible I'd love to avoid talking to some support asshole from India.

Other things to try?

Thanks
