Problems turning Bluetooth off

Has anyone noticed a problem with Bluetooth in that when you go into the settings and switch it off then go back to the home screen sometimes the Bluetooth switches itself back on again?

Seems to be an intermittent issue as usually after switching it off 2 or 3 times it does stay off - and sometimes it even goes off first time.

I never had this issue until upgrading to OS 3.0 so was just interested to find out if anyone else is suffering this (i.e. probably a bug) or if it's just me (i.e. probably a full restore required).

Yep, same thing happened to me on my 3G after installing 3.0. You have to stay on that screen for a few seconds after switching it off. If you exit too quickly it will switch back on.

3GS is fine though

Cool, glad it isn't just me!

Hope Apple sort it out with an update as it's a bit of an annoyance for me. Wouldn't mind so much except the battery seems to drain much much faster when it's switched on.
