The only reason I mention this is because it has happened to me, but I was the cause. During the process of testing the HPTuners throttle relearn function, I ended up doing it incorrectly, and the result was exactly what you are describing - press the gas, and nothing happened. Engine idled just fine, everything else completely normal. I ended up doing the throttle relearn again, and that took care of it.
You might try disconnecting the battery for ~10 minutes, and then give it another whirl. If it is still doing the same thing, you'll probably have to find someone that has the correct tools to do the throttle relearn procedure.
