I just had what 49kat happen to her, with my wifi policy set to Never. same scenario. Had two freeze and resets before that (buttons lit, but screen wouldn't turn on, so it ran through battery). No software updates, but the day before the bag with the Vox in it flopped forward onto a desktop, with the screen side first. after that is when I began having issues. Just did the battery reset via button, everything else I can get to without a screwdriver feels secure.

No software changes since well before this started. Either Kobo got a timer in there to encourage obsolescence real early, or there's something else going on. Especially as this was working fine after the update for almost a week.

EDIT: in retrospect, I shouldn't have summoned Murphy by asking if my unit was the one the update was designed for.
