Are you leaving the wireless, bluetooth or infrared turned on when not in use? It may be getting info from other devices like one of those BB's when it is close enough.

It can happen anytime the unit is turned on, without any specific provoking causes that I can tell, and it renders the unit unusable. The only solution is soft reset. And event then, it may re-appear right away. Here's what happens. The display starts to show operations I did not initiate. As if someone (something) was tapping various area of the screen at random, starting an app, opening menus, entering random characters. It even happened while on the cradle once. My main issue is that it can start any app (for example Calendar) and enter random appointments or worse yet, erase existing ones. It could be just any other app too. I must say that I have replaced my Microdrive for a CF card a few months ago. My first reaction was that the Motherboard had gone bezerk. I had a spare unit, so I patiently opened the two, swapped the MBs and for a week it worked beautifully. Then it started again. So I decided that maybe it was the screen that was causing the trouble. So again, I opened the two units, and swapped the displays. This time the problem re-appeared within a day or two. I really was at wits end. So I though to myself, maybe it's the case. By now I was getting to be an expert at opening up my units. I swapped the two cases, at no avail. The erratic behaviour was still present. Just two days ago, I got my hands on a third unit, this one almost new. The previous user told me it was in perfect condition, operating like a charm. I know I can trust him. So I yanked my CF card out of the faulty unit, I put it the new one. It worked well for 2 days, but this morning, I think it started again. I'm really at the end of the rope, and I am beginning to think that the real culprit is the CF card. Has anyone ever encountered such bizarre behaviour, or anything linked to using a CF card as a replacement for the MicroDrive? Sorry for the long post, and thanks for your help. Maurice PS: If you are wondering how I got to own 3 Lifedrive, my organization is going the Blackberry route. Other people's units are being retired. I insisted on keeping my LD, since it allows me to do things my BB won't, for example, work on a Word Document, with a IR keyboard using Word To Go. I'm not a convert to BB, far form it too. M
