@TechniSol - You are absolutely right, and I agree - better to have a weird restore than a bricked device, granted. If this was a fluke, OK, so be it - but if it wasn't, if there was some order to the madness, then I have to say it's a rather drastic first step from a programming perspective to resort to a full and immediate system wipe and restore. In my days of programming, a call would have been made for the OS to restart. This usually resolves any memory corruption, system hang or critical but not fatal errors. I saw something rather disturbing and boy I wish I could make you guys see it: just imagine it though, typing in something on the keyboard, pressing "go" and a restore starts. I mean it just didn't seem like there was even any time for things to go wrong, it just wiped data and restored. Anyways, yes, at least it's restored and all - now I just have to hope it's not a bad device, or that there's an issue with the firmware.
