Induced hardware issue with 01?

[Lon Lentz]

  I have an 01BV4, which I may have banged around one too many times.

  Just started having a problem where if I put a little pressure on
the back just below the battery, the unit cuts power. I have to remove
the battery for a minute or two before I can boot it back up. Just
handling the phone is enough to do this.

  Has anyone else experienced such an issue? Just curious before I
pull it apart and start looking for a broken solder joint.
