It's been an hour of seven since 100% battery and it's now somewhere at 35% btw.

You will probably have a different experience than most people here, since your version is a bit more fully supported than ours. A lot of our bugs don't apply to your model.
GPS doesn't work, but cell tower triangulation does. (Perhaps more robustly on GSM than CDMA.) That's how it's placing you on the map.
And... I find myself hitting End Call to turn the phone off in WinMo now. It sort of makes more sense, even there. We've already got back and home buttons, which do basically the same thing as End. My Android brainwashing is nearly complete, it seems.

Sounds like you could've stumbled on a data connection panic. There's still a few bugs like that out there to be squashed. When I've had crashes like that, the browser opens, but then when it starts trying to download it reboots. Is that what you're seeing? You could try wiping your data.img and starting over, see if it avoids that problem next time. Or you could try turning on Wifi and seeing if that gets around it.
Or it's something else crashing the browser, and I have no idea what to do.
