Well I have had some occasions of apparent freezing but I've noticed 
this after a large email has been downloaded.

I now leave the Beagleboard to complete this task which initially 
doesn't show anything, apart from an apparent freeze of the machine. 
This apparent freeze can take up to 4-5minutes, depending on the size 
of the download before normal functionality resumes or a debatch 
window appears.

I have the advantage with my Beagleboard of having an external hard 
disc drive that I can see the LED flickering on.
