Android Tablet Issues
Discussion
I was just coming on to post an update.
Still some erratic running - keys not responding intermittently (took perhaps 6 goes before it would accept my security code this am, for instance), doing eccentric things, so I think it will have to go back, which is a pain, but hey-ho.
Factory reset first, do you think?

If you send it back then you should do a factory reset first anyway, to get rid of the data.
You may as well do it and then do a restore to see if it works, nothing to lose.
If it does still need to go back, then there is a way to securely wipe the device so there is no chance of any data recovery tools being used to recover your data.
I will edit this post to provide a link later.
Here's the link, you probably only need to do Step 1 and Step 2

...so it couldn't be repaired, it was refunded, I bought another, Amazon stumped up the difference between the old and the new price, and I got a brand new unit, not a refurb. Only slight downside is that my Micro SD doesn't look like it's going to be returned from my old unit.
...and this one seems to be working fine - so far.
