Thanks. It hasn't happened again since mid-afternoon, so perhaps it just needed
to get broken in or settled down.
I'll see how it goes.
Thanks again.

The slide-causes-power-cycle problem is associated with a small gap
between the battery and the interior wall opposite the battery
connections. When you slide it closed quickly (violently?), the
battery momentarily loses contact with the power pins in the battery
compartment and resets the phone.
You can either go back and ask for a new battery (new ones have an
extra bump on them beneath the label that keeps this from happening)
or, more expeditiously, put a small roll of tape between the battery
and the wall to jam the battery up against the power pin contacts.
www.precentral.net has an article on this should you Google for it.
