I put in new batteries but it still happens. Anyone had this happen before?

Wireless keyboards/mice often 'sleep' after some time (30 seconds?) to save battery life. I've got a Logitech Cordless Desktop MX5000 and after it sleeps, there is a 1 second hesitation on a keystroke and it sometimes will double the keystroke up.
I've found that this problem is made
much worse by using any type of Logitech software and/or drivers. Most wireless keyboards/mice should be transparent to the system; that is they will appear as regular USB devices to Windows without Logitech software or drivers. In my case the logitech software adds ridiculous little bells & whistles like showing MSN messages on the keyboard's illegible LCD screen and it causes noticable lag on the keyboard.
Uh long story short uninstall everything Logitech and if that doesn't work take it back. I've already had to return my MX5000 once.
