Ok, thought this well worth a try. So plugged it up and flicked power on. Didn't get a noise, but applying power puts it straight on and just took as long as it took to boot. So applying a charging cord seems to be the most reliable way of doing this.

I totally agree. Someone told us that you should empty the app switcher before powering down. For a full switcher makes the start-up longer. Well, I was trying to power back on after the iOS 7 had updated itself. I dcouldn't get it and I couldn't get it. Well, I thought, let's put this beast on the power supply. It was actually a docking station. When I did that and held the button, I do believe that I heard something that let me know that we had power. If they give you a light, it wouldn't hurt my feelings if they gave the slightest beep too! BestPen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
