Perhaps this is a bug?

This happens to me quite often. The solution is to turn on "auto lock" so even if you dont manually lock it while its in your case/pocket it will lock itself and stop accidently presses.
Amazing how random pressure on the screen can do do complex tasks/change settings/remove shortcuts and download illegal images :P

Just a bit OT
i called 110 (the same like 911 for germany) several times with my old phone, even with the keypad locked.
i felt a bit bad about it, especially since it happend several times when i was a bit drunk.
So my current phone is a Slider. (N900 doesnt count as phone for me, it rather replaced my Netbook)

this exact same thing happened to me 3 days ago. the default codes don't work and nokia simply said I needed to mail it in. Just crazy that this could happen and apparently to multiple folks.

So now I have a locked n900 that does not have ssh active on it. I can see and access the n900 drive when I connect it via usb to my computer though.
Is there any way I can get past the lock or reset it?
thanks in advance.
