Keyboard and trackpad suddenly unresponsive sometimes.

[yarjarrarr]

Sometimes while using computer, the entire keyboard and trackpad suddenly go completely unresponsive and I can't do anything. The only button that works is the power button. It's so annoying because I have to do an emergency shutdown and I hate doing that. Is there any relief?
It's an early '08 macbook pro.

I have this same problem on my 13" Aluminum unibody.

It's VERY annoying. And this same solution does not apply. I have AppleCare until 2012, so I'm not that overly concerned about it. Yet.
