Search the forums or Google for "QuickPull." It's free software that will allow you to reboot.

Download an app called quickpull it will simulate a battery pull without you physically doing it.

I know there's apps out there to do this, and on the devices there are "keyboard shortcuts" to doing it. However, the only true method of rebooting is a battery pull. These other methods I don't believe can do a full system reboot.

Qwickpull pa just like doing a battery pull and is the best method forironing out kinks. Unless one particularly enjoys battery pulls.

As far as I can tell all Quick Pull does is activate the phones own reset feature (like when you uninstall something) so therefore it must be exactly the same as doing a real battery pull

I really wish RIM would put in a button shortcut for this. Like Holding ESC (Back button) and Pressing Power for 5 Secs. How hard is that? They already have an instruction set to power off the device if you hold Power down for 5 Secs... put in an added check to see if ESC is being held down and have it trigger a reboot instead of a power off. Am I the only one without blinders here?

Of course you are not the only one without blinders, you are just a little more eloquent.. It should be an option being that rebooting your blackberry is almost (and sometimes is) a daily occurence.

I tried QuickPull Lite again yesterday; no change. Don't know about the full version though.
