I wanted to take a picture of a blank screen, so I went to camera mode and put my finger over the lense and hit capture and my phone REBOOTED!

So I tried it again about 4 times, (and just now when typing this email), and it keeps doing it!!

You can't take a picture of total blackness without the phone rebooting?! One time it locked up then rebooted.

Here is the procedure, let me know if all E815 phones do this:
1) Open flip and press right side camera button
2) Cover lense with finger
3) Use left side of arrow pad to lower Brightness to 0
4) Press right soft key to Capture
5) Phone will lockup and captions will dissappear then reboot, or phone will immediately reboot!

I just tried it in a totally dark room, without my finge...
