This method is the worst one possible. Don't use it unless device is not responsive for more than 1 minute, there is hardware watchdog that should reboot device in 63 seconds if linux kernel becomes stuck somewhere so be patient

It can happen on a brand new device as it can happen on a well seasoned one (I had it after 18 months)
So it is a bit hard to tell if it is prone to it or not :-)

As an engineer my point was exactly the same
but my friend from sales dpt said "No in that case it's not that They (NOKIA) didn't make a fix - they DID - they released new proper version
".Consumer electronics is a bit tricky - rapid time to market vs. changes in technology, parts etc done by third party manufacturers and so on.
