    OK, strange problem to discover, and it all makes sense now, but while I had my 9900 in my pocket, naked, with a bunch of
    keys....a conductive path was caused across the charge contacts, which drained my battery and turned off my phone.

    It's all recharged and working now, but I was a bit surprised that it happened. First time it's happened as well.

    So, just wanted to share this, and make users aware to be careful what is coming in contact with the lower half
    of your phone around the charge contacts.

    Cheers!

    Had this happen on a previous device. It's the main reason my bold stays in a pocket pouch unless I'm on it.
