Palm Centro’s source of instability discovered

Well, I finally discovered why my Palm Centro would restart every now and then. Especially when pressing the space bar. What is interesting is that when I searched the web for others with this problem (especially regarding pressing the space bar) I did not find anything.

Anyway, the source is pTunes. Specifically, the ability to ‘background play’. What this means is, that when you are playing a song you can go to other applications and the song will continue in the background. Ever since I disabled this option my Palm has not restarted even once!

To do this: In pTunes, open the menu. Choose ‘Background Prefrences…’. uncheck the ‘Enable background play’ check box
