Anyone's Athena turning on by itself? Two or three times over the last year I could have sworn I turned the thing off (held power down, pressed "yes") yet it was on the next morning. Didn't think much of it, I must have been wrong or didn't properly hit "yes".

Last night, it happened twice. Turned it off, later went to plug it in to charge and discovered it was on. So, I turned it off again. This time I stared at it the whole time, watched it turn off the phone radio (saw the "x"), shutdown the screen and at the end saw the red ring around the joystick which confirms shutdown.

4:30 am, I'm woken up by a bright sunrise. HEY, wait, its January, its pitch black until 7! Its my Athena, glowing like the rising sun next to my bed, fully booted up and ready to start the day.

WTF!?! I know I turned it off. Twice. Anyone have any ideas?

LMAO, watchout for them Feds, they have your phone tap. I guess you didn't watch Transformers huh, they had phones turning into robots. Poor Athena was just trying to make sure you slept ok without any harm. LOL, no but it happened to me once before and never again.

Hasn't happened in the last few days, so who knows why it happened twice that one night. I'll repost if it happens again.
