I would like to reset it myself instead of taking it to the store but I 
can't find any hint of how this could be done in the net.

As a summary I quote myself to have all information in one post. This is 
the behaviour of the phone now:
-----------------------------------8<-----------------------------------
Now, when I try to turn it on, it starts as usual, the display is lit 
up, the battery power status is shown. But when the animation with the 
hands starts, the screen just blanks and truns off. The power status is 
then shown again as if the phone is going to charge the battery, but 
that vanishes too after a few seconds  and the phone is back in off state.
-----------------------------------8<-----------------------------------

And here's the desrciption of what I did with xgnokii before the crash:
-----------------------------------8<-----------------------------------
During the session I used all of the three components calendar, contacts 
and sms to make something like a full dump of the data stored in the 
phone. It all worked well so I don't think there's anything wrong with 
it. I then tried to close xgnokii what didn't work, so I terminated it 
with Ctrl-C.

I'm not sure but I think the last action I did before trying to close 
was getting the calendar entries from the phone. But this too worked 
without trouble.
