re-read this thread. http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/53155072

There may be some stickiness on the top of the camera (dried sweat, spiilled soft-drink, etc.) that keeps the flash from popping up.   Press the flash button and help it up when it clicks, then clean the edges of the flash and the area beneath it.
