The same thing is happening to me too! I had my pre for about 6 hours, closed the slider and the same damn thing happened to me. The phone goes blank, and the screen remains on, but just pure black. The only way to get the phone back was to press and hold the power key and re-boot the phone, which takes a hell of a long time.

I am going back to the Sprint store tomorrow. I can't be without a phone for weeks on end and I know they are all sold out of these.

Sounds to me like a lot of ****ed off people are going to be hitting up the sprint store tomorrow and monday about this garbage.

Unless you are EXTRA GENTLE with closing the slider keyboard on my pre, the phone completely crashes and the screen goes blank. Something in the wiring or manufacturing of these pieces of crap was bad and they are just letting us all bring them back (at least the suckers who are ****ed off enough to bring them back) instead of having made them right before shipping them out.
