not sure if you know this but you should only press the power button to put it on standby or to fully shut it off.

you can swipe with your finger from bottom to top to turn it back on from standby mode.

you can also press the battery icon on the screen which will popup the function for standby/restart/shutdown

the power button is a PITA but this should help a bit.

they made it hard to press to avoid people accidentally turning their pb off while fumbling around trying to push the volume buttons

in the 2 weeks ive owned my playbook ive had to use the power button exactly 0 times.
