I can reproduce that with 2.0.2. Here's what I did as I wasn't completely sure of your steps:

- Open the shelves list
- Press the plus to add a new shelf
- Enter a name and press "Next"
- Press the plus to add books
- Press the plus next to at least two books to add them to the shelf
- Press the search icon to find books to add to the shelf
- Enter a search term
- Select the result for a book (selecting an author seems to be OK)
- The Touch restarts

That is a consistent crash for me.

2. For the second time now, I'm having problems with my device freezing mid-update by wifi. The first time, I sent in an email to tech support, and they suggested I do a factory reset (*sigh*). So, I did. After setting up all my shelves (AGAIN), the problem has once again reappeared, which makes me think it's somehow connected to the number of books per shelf--because this is exactly when the problem showed up the first time.

I have several shelves that have 100+ books. I'm not sure exactly what the problem number is, or if this *is* the problem, but all I *do* know is that both times I've completed filling my shelves, my wifi update can no longer complete; the update freezes, which causes the entire device to freeze.
You are a patient person if you are willing to build those shelves. I haven't tested that one. But, I have quickly built a shelf with 333 books on it and will try it when I some time to do the WiFi part of it. It's the time that it takes after the reset that's the problem.
