Default Anyone else have problems with their 8200 in cold weather?

In Chicago here. Our weather can get REALLY cold. But, even at just barely below freezing, my Pearl Flip will constantly need to be reset. It will often say "can't recognize SIM Card" (I think), or it will just not give me any signal -- as if it's turned off.

Anyone else experience this. It can be in my pocket, while I'm outside for 10 minutes, and this happens. Extremely frustrating.

wow, I've never had that happen. what happens when you reboot? does it work normally for a while and then go out again? I live in NYC, we don't get the same type of cold but on the days when we've had negative wind chill my only issue has been typing with mittens on.

Maybe condensation on the SIM or the cold weather causing it to contract.

that has been happening to me too! I have no idea what to do about it though and its beginning to make me mad. its not like I can go at&t either about it since it isn't their phone.
