Yea that's a weird one...of the games you mentioned, I only have Gradius but I don't recall seeing an issue with it. I guess that's a good excuse to go play it some more!
When it resets during gameplay, is there a particular point that it happens?
I’m still patiently waiting for that email as well.
Having said that though…given all the issues that Fred is having to track down and issue firmware updates for, does anyone have an opinion on whether the HOKEY or a real POKEY is better to use with Concerto? Any benefit of one over the other?

Found these here, $25 each, but "make an offer" and could get them for less. Could be an option? Cheaper than both DigiKey and Mouser. Not sure how many you would be looking to buy.
I just read this entire post, and I thought the same thing: bad cart connector. Bent pins on the inside of the connector, or even cold solder joints on the connector pins on the bottom of the PCB, or both.
That’s correct. As batari has stated in previous replies, there isn't a hardware path to upgrade the memory in pre-production units. I believe he may offer a trade-in program to upgrade to the production version, but please don’t quote me on that.
