I had the same problem in the past. Won't power on. Removed the battery, reinserted, and it won't boot past 95%. I tried hard resetting it a number of times, nothing. I was scared shitless.

Last thing I tried, put it in the cradle, disconnect usb from PC, hard reset, and leave it. I come back later in 20-30 mins and its alive again. All you have to do it power it, then leave it while its trying to boot. It may look like its hung, but its not. I think it has to do with the filesys/compaction thingy that supposedly takes 15 mins to go entirely through the "defrag" the ROM.
