Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why my iPhone randomly lights up when chillin in its cradle, screen totally black (i've pressed the button the top...), it has already synced, and will typically stay like this for 10+ minutes (maybe much longer) but then all of a sudden it will light up and show me the time & battery level, as if i had pressed the menu button.

so yeah, its kinda annoying...any ideas?

i believe so, my does this occasionally, i turned off wifi and it does not do it anymore, so it may be that it is talking to the router every so often.
