I had installed VideoCenter both times, just before the issue arose.
But, I had uninstalled Canola prior to the first time, and not at all the second. When I had canola running, I kept killing the canola-conf process.

When I tried booting it up and it wasn't working, it'd sit for several hours and not move from the 'Nokia' screen. It would come up with the 'Nokia' screen, then after a period of time (minutes) it would flash black, then back to the 'Nokia' screen, and so on.
I just uninstalled VideoCenter and the boot up was quick. But, only time will tell.
Do you have kagu and/or a2dp installed?

This sounds like you may have got a unit that developed a defect. If you can't reflash it (following the proper procedure) then it sounds like hardware. As it's 3 weeks old I would get a warranty replacement (hopefully you made a backup on the card at some stage, in case you have something you would like to keep).

Good news regarding my brick:
After a few more tries I was able to re-flash my N800. It took pulling the battery and restarting with the Home button 3 times but I finally got the USB indicator. I jumped from the 26 to the 38 firmware.
Prior to the brickage, I had just installed VideoCenter. Well, maybe not "just" but I'm pretty sure that that the pre-brick power cycling was the first one since installing VideoCenter. I'd had Canola on there for a while with no issues.
thanks guys! I'm back up and running. This an awesome forum
