    Xoom won't turn on

    So... my Xoom worked flawlessly for the first week after launch (WiFi only). Then yesterday it started to slow down just a bit. Today the browser got totally stuck (didn't work at all)... actually stuck on this forum!! I powered it down and now it won't come back on. When I press the Power button, the red light next to the front-facing camera flashes 3 times. HELP!!!

    I have found that if I dont hold the power button down until the Moto logo shows up, then I get the red light flashing. I rarely shut the Xoom down and I forgot to hold it down last time, I thought this happened to me too haha.

    Yes ATP is correct, you must hold down the power button to turn it on. This helps prevent turning it on by accident.

    Though I knew this, I came on attempting to figure out what the purpose of the 3 flashing red lights are? diagnostics?
