Try a reset hold sleep + home until it reboots.

This happened to me too. Hold the power button (top of phone) and the home button at the bottom of the phone at the same time. This will hard reset it.
I wasn't taking chances. I took the phone back to the Apple store where I bought it and exchanged it.

Mine is doing it too. Any reason why this is occurring??? I guess I'll have to exchange. Ughh What a pain.

Guys, if it's locking up, first off, shut it off, then turn it back on. You should do this every couple days. After all, the iPhone IS a computer, and most modern OSs need to be restarted.
If the lockups keep happening, do a restore.
THEN if they keep happening, I'd consider an exchange.

Out of curiosity, how "full" do you guys have your iPhone? Is it filled up to the brim with songs/videos/photos? If so, I'm thinking the problem might be that phone needs a small amount of memory free as overhead. This is pretty common for OS X, the operating system running on this phone. Try leaving a couple of MB free and see what happens.

I'm interested to see if any of these are "hacked" or have "unsupported" modifications made such as custom ringtones.
