major Pre issues - power off for no reason and very slow

I have been the bane of iphone users everywhere, showing off how much better my Pre is to theirs. Unfortunately, as of late I've wanted to throw the thing out the window more often than not.

Two major issues that have cropped up in the past few weeks. First is that the phone powers off for no apparent reason, randomly, with a full charge. Sometimes it will stay on for hours and other times it will shut off after only seconds.

Second is weird slowness and sporadic errors of "too many cards open" when I have no cards open.

I have had other less major issues, but one of the more "minor" issues is that the headphone jack is almost unusable now because the connection is really faulty. Also, the sides of the phone around the keyboard have deep grooves in them from the sliding action of the phone. This is by the way my third palm pre (I ended up going through 3 in the launch week and finally ended up with one that I thought was going to be issue free...)

I'm bringing it to the store to get it troubleshot, but right now I'm tempted to just go the Motorola Droid route with verizon because the Pre is the only phone that's keeping me with sprint..
