Does anyone here have this problem? Occassionally when composing an SMS or searching the phonebook I have trouble multitapping. For example I try to enter the letter 'S' but I end up entering 'PPPP'. It doesnt matter how fast I press. To fix the problem I have to press another key or exit the composer and come back.

I'm using R1L002

I get that problem on my W800i.

I only see it happen when entering in txt fields on WAP pages and the like though, cause I use predictive text for messages.

I may have discovered the reason, and it may not be a bug at all!

I think it happens because my hand presses the camera button while i'm pressing the keypad. When I hold the phone a certain way (in my right hand) and text with my thumb the base of my index finger presses against the cam button when multitapping it acts like another button press breaking up the sequence to get to the next letters so i end up entering the same letter over and over. Doh!
