wireless keyboard typing gibberish

Some keys ok, some typing multiple characters, some typing nothing. Key strokes are repeatable (e.g. - typing "a" yields "agl" every time). Tried replacing with older style keyboad (with number pad) with same result, although different nonsense. This is a sudden problem, with no obvious change in operation.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

I have similar problem.

MAC MINI LATE 2012 , Operating System : OSX 10.8.3 + Windows 8(bootcamp 5.0) 。the G6 bluetooth keyboard works fine in both OS. But some day in Windows 8, it typing nothing some time ,Or type a letter repeatable(e.g. - typing "a" yields "aaaaaaaaaaaaa" some time. This problem is only take place in Windows 8. OSX is OK. I think apple should update the G6's firmware or bluetooth driver.
