My 400 had similar issues irregular, when fairly new, but I could never  
make it repeat the bad behavior when at an Apple service center.  
Eventually I got realy annoyed when it happened at a clearly unsuitable  
occasion and decided to cause it either to get well or crack it.

I took a firm grip with my thumb on top of the pam rest and my pointing  
finger at the bottom of the Ti, aiming as well as possible for the  
center of the CD-reader. I heard a clear snap when something sort of  
connected correctly (?:-)) and it has worked fine ever since. I have  
been slightly more careful on how I grip the Ti-book at that end, so  
not to twist it  in any way.  It has however been hauled along in my  
backpack and on my bike for over two years now with no more problems.
