N70 Troubles / strange behavior.

[HaltAndCatchFire]

Hi, I have a Nokia N70 and I have been very happy with it thus far, my previous phone was a 6600, so I am used to Symbian and all the pro's and con's associated with it. My N70 is about 6 months old and I am starting to have some serious issues! The screen keeps flashing, well i think it is the back light which is trying to adjust to the ambient light in the room but can't (maybe the LDR is screwed?) then the camera also stopped working just gives a message, about hardware fault and prompts to reboot. It also drains the battery, like seriously, less than one day on standby from a fully charge battery! It all started when I noticed that the thing was very slow in the menus etc, as i said i am not a new Symbian user so i know when it is really slow. Then the screen, then the camera and at the same time the battery issue!

Does anybody have a clue what might be wrong? Im not used to phones just dying after like 6months for no reason.
I am going to take it back(it is still under a year old) just wanted to know if anybody else experienced similar behavior from a Nokia N series phone?

I had a similar problem with my N 70, very slow response to requests ,slow menu etc and I updated the software over the net to version 5.0705.3.0.1 dated 30.01.07 and it sorted all my problems out. Give that a try and see if it helps.
