Hi Alan, you are right, however there is still a reason I think that this is not the case. What I am seeing is that the keypresses are lost only if I hit a key (and thus wake the autosuspended keyboard up) only after a short time it goes to suspend. When I leave it autosuspended for 2 or more seconds (approximately), it behaves nicely. Sure, it still could be a HW issue (I have experienced this with two random keyboards I used for testing), but I'd guess it would be something different than what you describe. What do you think?
