What are the events that led up to this? Had it been a long time since you used it? Did you install something new?

When you said you took out both batteries, how long did you leave them out? It's best to leave them out for at least an hour to let the device fully hard reset itself. Also, have you tried plugging in the AC adapter to see if the light on the power button will turn on?

At this point, I can't see sending it out for repairs as being worthwhile. The X5 is not worth much anymore so you may end up spending as much as it is worth on repairs. The only exception is if you know exactly what is wrong with it so you can price out the repair ahead of time. Companies like PPCtechs and PDAParts will do repairs.
