I set mine up so that page turns are a left press, which probably explains some of the issues I had. I prefer it that way, so don't mind the occasional "issue" with it.

It sounds like the "5 page jump" is a different problem. Some iLiads were susceptible to that as well, where the flip bar would occasionally register as a long press even when you didn't do one. It didn't happen on all iLiads, just some of them. They put out a patch eventually that would disable the long page jump for people that had this problem. Maybe something similar is happening with a few DR800?
