Wrong. It just stopped responding again. Now am I totally missing something? I hit the wake button and try to slide it over to unlock but nothing happens

Should I just return it and get a new phone? or is something else the problem??? This is frustrating.. I am restoring my iphone again right now.

So I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I may have a defective iphone... or maybe someone else has had similar problems?

Is it possible its cause by a video or song loaded onto my ipod??

... update- while restoring my iphone agian it said "Your iphone contains Diagnostic information that could help Apple improve his...blah blah blah"

Is this a generic message or is my phone just screwed up?

Any help or comments would be appreciated

My phone was doing the same thing today. I had to hard reset it this morning after it froze. I haven't had to do it again since, but sometimes when i press an icon it won't respond until the 5th try.
