The reason I'm reading mobipocket again is part because I like to see the battery life while reading (and page numbers) and the mobipocket reader does support that (luckily!)
I'm starting to see this occur more often now any time I enable the keyboard lock and leave it idle for a period of time.

Different book format this time so I doubt if it's the book format. I have also seen it lock moving to the next page.

Actually holding down the power button for an extended period of time sends the device into a series of beeps which once released cause it to reboot. Once that happens I can restart and read until the next lock-up or power down.

Really odd think is once this happens a restart takes longer than normal, actually stopping during startup. Holding in the power button takes it immediately to the book list.
