There's no currently known workaround.

However, if you can reflash the device (can get the device to boot up, you've
taken backup and have nothing else that you would miss, battery is full etc)
with the latest N800 OS2007 or OS2008 release we would be interested about 
whether that has any effect.

The issue seems to be related to SW timings used in Omap initializations.
(that could explain why in some blog post it was claimed that freezing
the device helped i.e. that temperature could affect it.)

If everything works well, the fix could be available in a few weeks.
