800w Problems & microsd conflict????

I'm currently on my 3rd 800w. I'm starting to think if my microsd caused the previous problems of the other 2. I'm using a Patriot 2gb microsd & I'd like to know if anybody else is using the same thing or encountering similiar problems?

Some of the problems I experienced:
1. This one is the worst. I'll set the switch on top to silent before I go to sleep, when I wake up, the battery is completely drained. I charge the phone but can't turn it on. I repeatedly take the battery in & out as well as the charger plug & nothing happens. Can't turn it on. It will eventually come on several hrs later. This has happened 4 times between my last 2 800w.
2. The last 800w within the past one week, all of a sudden could not data connect when trying to surf the web. Requiring me to soft reset (about twice daily) before I could connect. Same issues with texting.
3. Both experienced the handsfree earpiece going out & not working. Again must soft reset.
4. On the last 800w, so many times I would press the talk button to dial but it would automatically hang up just as the call counter starts. A very frequent occurrance.
5. Takes a very long time to get out of roaming mode when a known area clearly has plenty of sprint signals.
6. I miss incoming calls like never before.
7. Battery status icon disappears replaced by a speaker icon that's not even listed in the user guide.
There's other things that have happened only once so I won't include it.

Programs that I had on there were Google Maps, Netfront (seldom used), Magic Button, Pdanet (seldom used). I don't believe it's the progs since I haven't heard much regarding these progs causing issues.
