When you press power does a dialog appear asking if you want to power off?
If it does long press on power off and when it asks if you want to enter Safe Mode allow it,
If it then loads normally it is caused by an app that you added.

The last thing I can think of prior to a Factory Data Reset ...
I pulled the SIM and SD cards and it still boots for me.
You could pull the SIM card and see if it boots. If it does then you get a SIM card replacement.
