I read that holding up on the volume and pressing the power button resets the Cruz Reader..I followed the instructions and now my screen is frozen with the droid robot and a hazard icon..i can't turn it on or off..did I mess my Cruz Reader up?..

You'll have to remove the back cover and unplug the battery.

Get your fingernails under the rubber coated back plate,
Carefully work your way around the plate, popping it off, its taped a bit and just pull a bit to get it off,
in the lower right-hand corner, you'll see the white wire coming out of the batter over to where it is plugged in,
using your nail, or a non-sharp object, work the plug back-and-forth to unplug it,
wait five seconds or so, and plug it back in.

Should turn back on.

BTW, the reset requires a small paper-clip, press and hold for five seconds in the reset hole.

Holding down the volume button and then the power button starts the firmware update sequence.
The reset button is located on the top of the unit (it'll say reset...BTW I'm totally not trying to sound like a jerk) and you will need a pin to push it.
