i415 reboots over and over for no reason. Why?

One of my i415's started to reboot itself lately. Sometimes it will never become ready so I have to remove the battery to shut it down. Other times, it works fine. Does this seem like a software problem or hardware?
Thanks

Is it a stock i415 - or have modifications been made to it?
Does it give any other messages or just reboot when it wants to? I assume the battery is a good battery - but have you tried swapping them out?
Thanks

Tom,
Sounds like a power issue!

I had nothing but problems with the i415, over and over. I am a licensed Private Investigator and use many different GPS devices. (Passive & real time) I was looking for a cheap alternative to my $1,000. devices. The i425 is MUCH better! The i425 gets signals where the i415 won't (like in my front living room, or under the hood by the air filter) I do reccomend upgrading to the i425, I think you will see a night and day difference. Just my 2 cents!

Glad you getting good luck with the i425; I would rather have a i415 any day of the week - we have seen nothing but issues with the i425 - and since they don't send back battery data, or cell signal data - it makes it tough to trouble shoot.
Glad you like them.
