It has happened to me at least several - at least two or three - times. The basics:
1. I push the button. (Any button seems to do it, but I think it's most commonly Page Forward or Menu.)
2. I wait about 3-5 seconds and nothing's happened.
3. I think I might not have pushed it completely.
4. I push it again, solidly.
5. I wait about 3-5 seconds and nothing's happened.
6. I may push it again a third time, or, thinking it may have locked up I push the menu key a couple of times, and/or number buttons a couple of times.
7. About 3-5 seconds later (total elapsed time 15-20-30 seconds or so,) all of the commands execute in rapid fire order. Thus finding myself someplace else entirely, and takes about 30 seconds to navigate back to where I was.

I think that once in awhile the Reader gets caught in some kind of processing loop, and after the loop resolves it executes whatever is in the keyboard buffer. (There must be one, since it has certainly saved all the button presses.)

Strangely enough, my DVR does the same thing sometimes.
