I was playing the unit and all of a sudden it locked up. The display freezes for a while, no buttons have any effect. After a while the player restarts and then freezes again as soon as it's running. The cycle continues forever.
Power off causes the player to reboot and start the cycle all over again.
I re-uploaded 1.03 and ended up with the same problem after the successful completion of the upload.

And it repeats forever. (there is a DHCP server on the network by the way). I've emailed support but it's the weekend. I don't want to do without her that long.
Any thoughts from the boards wisdom?
