Hi.  I purchased a Qtek 8500 through a US reseller a few months ago (I'm in Canada).  Obviously, this was not a North American sanctioned purchase.  Over the last couple of weeks my phone has started acting really wonky.  It freezes up randomly, averaging once a day.  A couple days ago it wouldn't turn back on.  I'd removed the battery for awhile, removed SIM and microSD, replaced battery and nothing.  Left it sitting for a few minutes, and when I came back to look at it about 10 mins later it was magically powering itself up.  Very strange.

At any rate, it seems more and more like it's a hardware issue at this point, so I'm wondering if anyone's aware of a North American (preferrably Canadian) repair center that can take care of this for me.  I paid a fair bit for this phone when I purchased it, and would hate to see that investment go down the tubes.  Also, it's a fantastic phone (when it works that is).

Can anyone help a brother out?

Well, in case anyone cares, I found a great repair shop in Toronto right on the subway line which fixed my phone in about 2 days.  Was a little pricey ($50 for the service and $85 in parts), but beats sending my phone to Germany for warranty repair.
