Pocket enTourage eDGe owner needs help
I'm new at this so this is probably not the correct forum. But, I tried to upgrade my pocket edge and I'm in over my head. Any advice?

Cautionary tale
My advice is BE CAREFUL. I got mine off of Woot just yesterday, used the "Update" tool to update to Dingo 1.13. Since I couldn't get YouTube videos to play, I manually updated the OS to Ermine, like everyone else. It worked great for about three hours, then I woke it up from Hibernation, and it went to what's called, "the White Screen of Death", which paralyzes the tablet side. Everyone I can find on these forums who encountered this problem only got it fixed by shipping it back to the company for repairs, that is the company that has since shut down and stopped answering their support hotline. It's a brick now. If I were you, I'd practice with what's already installed until you've got a darn good reason for updating.

That's what I was afraid I was going to hear. You see, I wanted to get some of the Apps from Amazon, so it needed to be upgraded, and even though, I didn't really know what I was doing, I went ahead and tried to do the update manually. Now, I evidently what I have is what you described as the dreaded "screen of death" - Does anyone know of anything that I can do to fix it?
