At least one of the readers on my blog has had 8 or 9 replacements, all with the issue. I suspect the 19K books in his archive is likely the issue.

All the K3's on my account have this problem -- all of which connect via WiFi. I'll have to try letting mine connect via 3G sometime to see if that makes any difference (I know it won't send some docs that way, but it should otherwise perform most of the same steps, including attempting an archive sync).

The good news is that once you turn off the WiFi, you only get (at most) one more reboot. Then, it's good until you turn on wireless again (even if it is days later). It is so easily reproduced, I don't know why Amazon hasn't set a tech on it (it isn't as though they can't create an account with a few thousand free books fairly easily and even without incurring any costs - heck, most of us with the problem would be happy to let a tech attach to our accounts, if it would help them).
