Opera Mobile and/or Charging Killing Hard Keys?

[sovrce]

Has ANYONE else run into this problem at all? This is the second time in two days of extensive OM use and it's starting to bother me. It seems that after a certain amount of time with Opera Mobile 9.5 (stock ROM - the version that came with the Alltel TP) open and running, typing using the on-screen (TouchPal) keyboard and just other general browser features, all of a sudden, my Call, End and slide out keyboard buttons don't work. The keyboard backlight doesn't even turn on when I open it and sometimes the orientation doesn't even change it gets so bad/laggy.

If memory serves correctly, it also only seems to happen when I'm charging it too. Does anyone else even have this problem? Could someone suggest some registry settings that I might have modified to cause this? I'm 95% sure it's Opera Mobile because I don't think (remember) this has ever happened with anything else from the Phone app to Texts to Total Commander.

Anyone?
