Lately my iPAQ hw6515 has been spontaneously rebooting a lot. Especially when I either connect or remove the charger. I am using version 1.21 of the software if that makes any difference. A couple of times the phone was ringing and I disconnected the charger to answer the call and it rebooted. I also think I've missed calls as I had a few voicemails pile up, and when I picked up the phone and hit the power button to turn on the screen it rebooted, then told me I had 2 voicemails. The phone never rang. Any help that can be given would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Jay

I got an answer from another source, but I figure I'd share. The iPAQ 65xx series seems to have inherent problems with the design of the battery compartment and cover. I shimmed the left side of the battery with a piece of paper cut from a business card and then taped it down with a piece of skotch tape. Afterwards I trimmed the tape so I could replace the cover and my problems seem to be solved.
