if it's the battery then you shoul hear some noise when you shake the n810.
Actually, I do...Front to back and up and down both rattle. Side to side does not. I will try the cardboard. However, I had it sitting next to me (I was trying to get openvpn configured), and not doing anything with it. It was sitting on the stand with the keyboard open, and it just rebooted out of the blue. I wasn't even touching it.

when you try to connect via usb the system umount both the internal and external sd cards, the message you get means that one of the cards was busy and the process was interrupted.
Actually, I rebooted last night and got the same thing. So I recharged it and went to bed, and when I got up this morning, it was able to see both cards.

if you have the debian chroot open you sould close it with closechroot or it won't let you umount the card.
Yep. I wasn't running it, but I had downloaded it on the external card.
