Yes, this is a known issue. They made some fixes in the 1.5 firmware to address this, but I don't think they completely solved the problem. I believe they are still working on it.

I think the current theory is that some of the documents don't close completely for whatever reason, and the device looks like it shutdown, but is really still running (basically the open documents get hung). Some people have said that making sure you close all of your documents first, and even removing the SD card, will make the shutdown much more reliable.
