I usually operate my XO with an external USB trackball, and have no problem with cursor positioning. Lately I've often needed to operate XOs (hdw early G1G1, but F11 build) with the native keypad, and I can appreciate the many complaints I have heard about using the old keypad.
I have been running into this with the XO-1.5 prototype but thought it was either a prototype issue or my fat fingers.. however I noticed it with my kid also. Pretty much the same behaviour you list below.. in low humidity the cursor will move without touching the keyboard. Is there anything I can do to help debug/fix this for people (New Mexico is pretty much always low humidity)
um, we've had a lot of trouble with XO-1 touchpads, which is what mikus was using. i think this is the first report of serious erratic operation on an XO-1.5. :-/
