The worst part about knowing more in this field is that you can get really fucking paranoid.
Anytime I have issues with devices that can't be fixed beyond a few simple layers of solutions, I can't help but wonder whats happening that I can't see? Argh.
Hmmm, I'm not there yet but I can totally see how that could be a normal reaction. I DO get frustrated when the ol' "hard reset" doesn't work though. :) To security AND peace of mind!
