i bought my v551 about 40 days ago and have had a pretty good experience with it so far. but lately, about 2 days ago, it started turning off randomly even though it said the battery was full. So i though that maybe the battery was defective so i plugged it in and came back 20 mins later to get it and it had turned off again.
Does anyone know what might cause this? I heard somewhere that motorolla released a batch of defective v551s, so is it possible that i have one of these?
Thanks for any help you can give me!

I got one and if I knew what I know now, I would have just kept my old phone.
My battery only lasts about 1 1/2 days. I wonder if it's a bad phone too!
