My BookPort has reset itself a couple of times, but I figured I must have
accidentally hit a wrong key or combination of keys.  I can't come up with a
time that my BookPort and my cell hone have been stored near each other, so
I don't think the cell phone had anything to do with it.

Ah, the wonders and quirks of modern technology.

ASK, "WHAT GOALS WOULD YOU SET FOR YOURSELF IF YOU COULD NOT FAIL?" Don't
ask if it's possible or impossible. Don't worry about failing. Focus on what
you want, and let that be your guideline.
