I have a question about the Power button - my understanding is that if you just touch it lightly, the device goes to Sleep, but if you hold it down for longer, it will Power Off. But in reality, it doesn't seem to make any difference how I hold it down - it seems random as to whether it Powers Off or Sleeps. Mostly it seems to Power Off when I don't want it to (e.g. I know I'll be coming back to it in a little while).

It also it difficult to get it to turn back on sometimes too - holding it down too quickly, it doesn't respond and too long, it doesn't respond either. There seems to be some magic touch required.

Anyone else find that?
