Please file bug reports for any such crashes. Note the output of logcat is extremely useful -- in most cases, if the system crashes, it is due to a Java crash, which will be printed to the log prior to it rebooting. This may help you understand what is going on; it is *extremely* helpful in a bug you file since the engineer can very likely tell what the problem is and how to fix it from the log.
