Typing Issues on flip out keyboard

I never used to have this problem, but now when I type on the flip out keyboard, it will enter double or triple letters. For example, say I was typing the word "down", it will type "dooown." So frustrating!!!!!

Turns out it's an issue with the phone. There is nothing that can be done to fix the problem. Tech support tried a couple troubleshooting methods, but still didn't fix the issue. If you're having this problem, visit a store that has tech support and you sould get a replacement. They don't make the Droid2, it's now the Droid2 Global, so you get a little upgrade. Plus, the keys on the flip out keyboard are softer. I have small hands, so it's easier to type and I don't get a cramp.
