Hi all,

Doesn't look like this issue has been raised here before, but in the last day my iPad 2 has gone crazy starting to reboot randomly at times.  I've done the soft reset and am facing the fact that the next step is the factory default/restore route which, may lose some stuff.

Not sure if anyone else has encountered something like this?  Did you solve it?
Most googling returns that it has happened to others, and most got an exchange but I think I'm out of warranty periods now.  (Was a gift so will have to ask back etc).  No one seems to have a definitive answer or solution.

Using it normally, then screen goes black with a light down one end edge only and then reboots.  Runs fine for 5 minutes or so and then goes around again.  At other times though it's fine.  Weird, had no issues prior to this one...
