had this same problem using my old Huron. somehow i solved it using this method (pls note it may not work for Bold)

i took the battery out of the unit (turn it off first), then i connect the unit with the usb cable to my laptop (leaving the bay opened and battery put away). the charging led should lit red. leave it for few minutes (mine for 10 minutes). later i disconnect the unit from usb cable and put the battery in. i try to power it on, and voila! it worked.
