Gee, are you sure you don't want to send this back and get a replacement? It almost sounds like it has a loose connection or something. Your Touch's behavior, from reading your postings, seems really bizarre, and outside the "normal" battery problems users like myself have been reporting. I think I'd return it if I were you. I think you are taking a chance thinking it might improve or settle down to being good enough. It might just stop working.

It's not all that difficult to send one back. I did it with my original mis-behaving Touch. You just alert them that you are doing it (on their website), and get a confirmation number. Then you print a prepaid shipping label, box the Nook up, bring it to UPS and send it. In the meantime, they send you a replacement. You'll have it within a few days. Very painless. Seems to me that it almost HAS to be better than your current one.
