cursor jumps in snow leopard

Ever since I loaded OS 10.6.1 I have been having keyboard issues -- I'll type and then realize I am no longer typing at end of sentence -- I'll be typing at the start of the sentence -- the cursor "jumps"

it is quite annoying.

any idea on what to do would be appreciated.

generally this has been happening in safari.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.1)

I'm getting this problem, too, and I'm certain it's not a hardware issue: This happens with both the trackpad (on my MacBook Pro), AND my wireless external mouse. It's only started happening with Snow Leopard.

Also, I don't think it's a heat issue because I have the computer sitting on a wire shelf suspended about 10 inches above my desk.

I do, however, have the Logitech drivers installed... maybe that's the problem.

(just wanted to throw another case/configuration in here...)
