2.1 Random HTC Screen

Both my Hero, and my uncles Hero are getting random "reboots" after the 2.1 update. I guess it's not really a reboot... The phone will just randomly go to the all white screen that has HTC in the middle of it. It'll sit there for 10-15 seconds, and then complete the function you asked it to do. For instance... on my "People" widget. I clicked on a picture to make a call. It went to the white HTC screen. After about 15 seconds, it began to make my call.

Anyone else experiencing this? Any resolution?!

My uncle has reinstalled 2.1, and is still getting this frequently. I've shut down and restarted a couple of times, and I seem to not get it as often.
 
Yes this happens to me as well! No idea, it seems like SENSE is rebooting but I do not get a force close or anything.
 
Yep, no close message at all. Makes it really hard to troubleshoot. It's gotta be a certain program or widget that causes it to happen. But it happened to me with a built-in HTC widget. Is it possible that the phone is running out of RAM, and it's closing all unused apps?
 
I too have been seeing this randomly and occasionally. It is very strange Sense is rebooting, and without the native Android Home Launcher, we do not have any built in alternative.

However, I really like how fast Sense can no change scenes now. WOW!
 
I get this about once a day or so. I've also been getting a full reboot every now and then when hitting the power key to wake the phone up.
