Help Switching itself off, but no sd installed

Hi all,
as the title suggests really.

I've searched the forum, and read about how an SD card can put the battery from its connectors slightly.
I have no SD installed, and yet i'm totally dogged by the phone re-booting. In support of the loose battery, it does only seem to happen when the phone is in my pocket. I hear the start up music if i'm lucky - if i don't then the phone wants the sim pin, and noone can reach me until i check the phone to see that its gone off again!

I've done the paper wedge trick, but nothing has changed. Is there a software issue??? I brought 2 S2's at the same time - one for the Mrs - and hers is totally fine :(

Thanks for any tips!!

I used to get random reboots all the time when I was on 2.3.4, it was probably happening 1 or 2 times a day. After updating my firmware to 2.3.5 I would get the odd one every week but since I've been on 2.3.6 I haven't had one.

It doesn't fix it for everyone but I would suggest updating your firmware. I guess you don't have an update via kies so you will have to flash with Odin.
