this has been happening to me almost every day:

i'll be in the process of sending an SMS, or even just opening an application, when all of a sudden my BB will just power down and reset iteslf. this is very inconvenient and irritating, and i was just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue? and if so, how did you resolve it?

thanks

Did you notice this after installing a 3rd party application???

If so it might be suspect... If not a complete back up and wipe might be in order...

I am also victim to random handheld reboots that drive me nuts. This started happening after upgrading the firmware to version 4.2.1.141. Not sure if you can apply a firmware patch that is of a earlier revision than what is currently installed. I will try none-the-less as this is a very irritating problem.
