Yep its dead. When switch it on i get the Opening mp4 then in freezes I did nothing to cause this, what happened was i was sending a mms and then it crashed. The 10 sec restart did nothing. The good news is the nice people at orange are sending me a new one by courier tomorrow
But what i want to know is why it crashed so badly? software was R1--
**edit just seen the post about full memory, The c drive had at least 2mb left on as everything is stored on the 128mb duo**

Not good mate.
I have a question to ask tho. When you get your new phone could you let me know what firmware version it is. I live a very long way from a service point so I would have to send my phone away to get it upgraded and they said they have a 7-10 day turnaround (that's a long time to be without my P800).
I was just thinking that if Orange send a new phone the next day with the newest firmware I could tell them the same thing has happened to me as you've had. When they agree to send me a new one I can either let them have my phone as it is, in all it's working glory or I could do a sneaky one and butcher the orange startup movie so that the phone hangs on turning it on.
This way I get the firmware upgrade and I'm not without my phone.
I know it sounds a bit bad gaining from your bad luck. I'm sorry to hear your phone died, I know how I'd feel if mine did.
Cheers

Mines deaded too
It comes up with a nice little message "Network Error: Invalid Mobile" after turning it off and on it works for a little while then does it again. After a nice chat with those friendly people at T-Mobile (one of which put the phone down on me, bastid) they reluctantly gave me the number for sony :|

Hi,
see my forum 35 thread. I've experience the same (with the difference that I took pictures instead of compiling / sending mms). Is seemed like memory is OK (close to full...) but Symbian doesn't like this and holds the system. The only way out is flashing it again. The only way to prevent is it taking good care of your last 1MB C drive.
BTW: there must be some Java of C++ guru who can write a oneline agent checking the memory... (I can't do it myself, I'm just a manager)
