Something weird happened today.
The tablet worked as normal - but as soon as I connected to the internet any application opened after that would cause the device to freeze.

The only install I did today was the OM Weather update(s) that came out. Not sure if it's related or not.

Anyway, re-flashing now (sigh) and hopefully that will clear up the problem....

Anyone ever seen this sort of behavior before?

EDIT: Re-flash seemed to have fixed it. Back on-line from the NIT (phew...). Now to the very tedious task of re-installing and re-configuring all applications I had on it.

WHICH brings up a question: How do you (can you?) keep a 'log'/backup of installed applications to in some way 'automate' a re-install/setup of them?

By creating a backup before flashing. :-)

I had that same lockup problem with the original diablo too. The only thing I could figure out is that there's something in the network stack that'd have a heart attack every time it connected to my router. Later Diablo versions didn't have that issue.

Weird, well it must had been a combination of something I had installed. In its 'defense' I had in- and un-stalled a lot of stuff trying them out so who knows what residual garbage was there

What was funny though was how I realized how dependent I am on the NIT now. Booting up the laptop felt like such a chore being used to just tap the screen on the NIT. Maybe the Google/Chrome OS have the right idea ;-)

Thanks.
