Now here's something interesting. The device I took those 2 christmas tree pictures with was suffering from the random reboot problem that some people have reported. I took it back to the Nokia store in London today and got it replaced with one that doesn't reboot all the time.

Here's a picture of the exact same christmas tree, taken with the new device with the back on:

All conditions exactly the same as yesterday. No reflection from the flash! This has got me scratching my head...

Is it possible that the small number of devices which suffer from random reboots do so because they've been put together badly? This might cause the flash LEDs to be fitted sufficiently out of alignment to cause the flare that I saw with my first one.

Naturally, I've got no evidence to support such a claim. Just seems odd that one device suffers from the problem while the other one doesn't.
