Brad,

It is happening across the hardware. We upgraded all of our devices to 2003! We also bought some devices with 2003 preloaded.

We are not using storage cards at this time. We had initially started with them, but read somewhere that there was a limit on the write/rewrites on them. I do feel that this is a operating system or SQL problem based on the behavior, but there does not seem to be anyone else out there having the problem.

We investigted the memory status when the issue first cropped up, and were able to eliminate it as a possible problem. We have some 16MB, 32 MB and 64 MB devices. The problem appears to occurs across this spectrum.

Thanks for your thoughts and comments.

Anyone else out there have any ideas?
