Has any one had a prob with their 8700 restarting when you received or place a call? its happend to me twice since i had mine.

Nope. Had mine since Nov 25th and it has been working well.

Everything's honky dory here too.

Defective unit maybe?

Any third party apps loaded on it?

it has happened to me a few times. I am unsure as to the cause, but my guess is it has to do with low cell signal and a firmware glitch. It has only happened a few times, no where near as frequent as the restart problems my 7100t had.

i've been using mine for a while, granted, not a heavy phone user, but never had a problem at all...looks like a possible unit issue.

I have had the problem a few times. First after a 45 minute conference call and it rebooted while I was still in progress on the call. Next I have found that when I am in Europe and I manually change the network carrier the handset MAY reboot. I only say MAY because I can not find a programatic sequence that restarts it everytime.
