My iPhone has died and I can't bring it back to life!

[Channelsurfer531]

My iPhone just up and quit on me this morning. I had it docked in its cradle last night, and when I came in this morning it was completely off.

I tried holding down the Power button at the top to turn it back on... nothing.
I tried holding down the Home button for several seconds... nothing.
I tried placing it in the cradle which is connected to my laptop... nothing.
I tried plugging it in to the wall charger and turning it on.... nothing.

Completely dead. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to reset this phone or do I need to bring it in to the apple store?

Any help would be much appreciated!!!! I'm gonna cry... :angry:

Try holding HOME and the SLEEP button at the same time. Hold 'em for like 10 seconds, until you see the screen change.

No problem at all.
Everything i know about this phone, I either learned from playing with it, or from this forum. If the phone even came with a manual, I wouldn't know, 'cause I never pulled it out. lol

I had my iPhone do this twice in the two weeks I have had it. The first was the first day I bought it. The reset always works.
