Sounds perfectly normal to me. As any device with contains a CPU has
occationally the same problem as other computers. As all it takes is one
bit to be toggled the wrong way to cause a problem. There are lots of
reasons how this can happen. And when they happen, rebooting clears it
up most of the time.
