Have you downloaded any apps recently? Have you tried pulling the battery?
If none of those work, you may have to do a hard reset,, but wait for others to reply first.

The last app I downloaded was Astrid, but otherwise I havent downloaded any recently.
I tried a battery pull and it didnt work, but i did notice that the phone is taking alot longer now to boot up.

Yeah, after a battery pull it will take longer to boot. If that doesn't work then id suggest a hard reset.

Default Touch screen not responding

My screen no longer responds to touches either. At first rebooting would restore it, clearing the internet caches seemed to briefly work too, but alas now it never responds to touch.

Tried pulling battery and restoring to factory settings to no avail.

Got my HTC Magic through Vodaphone in Australia. Shop assistant says it will take 3-4 weeks to send it off to be looked at. I’ve been trying to find a solution to avoid taking such a step. Doesn't seem to be much on the net at all concerning this problem yet... rare or just new phone model I guess.
