The N800 was left charging overnight like usual, and when waking it up in the morning I encountered the same blinking backlight. I did not play with it long enough to try to play an mp3, I just reflashed the device and it was back to normal. I can't remember if I tried taking the battery out or not. My girlfriend is also currently experiencing the same problem, but as she is off in europe right now I have not been able to look into it much. Any idea what the problem could be? Bad battery connection, maybe? But that doesn't explain why reflashing my device fixed it. Ryan Campbell
