I have problems like that with my Treo 300. It's when it goes in/out of coverage. In my office the reception is right on the line, and I find that sometimes it will actually drop keys rather than just buffering them for a second or two. Yeah, I just tested it again.. typing "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" while the light was blinking red, and during the transition between red-blink and green-blink it stalled and I wound up missing a character.
