    Hey does anyone know about this? When typing someties while I'm on the internet letters are skipped in the words. Happens sometimes more than other times and I don't know why it fluctuates. For example, the word "the" would come out like "te" or something similar. Noticed it more while I'm typing on the internet like in search bars or in emails, never noticed it in programs. Contcted (it just happened) sony and they are going to forward it to their technicians and possibly microsoft. Anyone have any ideas or suggested hot fixes?

    How fast do you type? Is it possible that you're hitting 3 or more keys at once?
