I don't see why. I can understand perhaps needing to reboot if out of memory (although I'd say it should kill an application first). But a Linux box ought to be a Linux box, and ought not to crash. Mine often doesn't reboot; it just locks up, unusuable. This has to be either a bad driver, or a core service locking up. Either way, Nokia needs to fix certain bad code, and this thing can stay up like my Linux desktop.
