I've tried putting the transmitter in other parts of the house but it hasn't solved the problem. Interesting about the frequencies though, I didn't know they overlapped. I'll try another channel to see if that helps. The only thing I have in the house is Wi-Fi. I’ve tried putting the transmitter in other parts of the house but it hasn’t solved the problem.

I know it really sucks^^ (the worst timing was, when we were fighting inside an instance in WoW back in the days). But considering, it is nearly the same problem, I think, there seems to be a problem with the bluetooth standard. Maybe after some time, theres some sort of syncing problem, which leads to a repairing or so... But as I am no electrical techhead, I cant even tell, if this is resolveable! Is there much radiation in your house? Meaning WiFi, a nearby cellphone transmitter, a mobile phone, a DECT telephone... anything that is wireless or something trivial like a Microwave oven (really!)? If so, try to switch them of and see if the problem stays. Often, these problems arise from other sources of radiation. The main problem is Wifi in this case, as some frequencies of WiFi and Bluetooth overlap Jason, I havent experienced any connection drop-out on my PS3 yet, BUT

They where also giving away free beer with purchase of there machine. It kind of made me mad, but its good to see it didnt affect the PS3 a whole lot. I had troubles with my controll for the first week. Now its been several months and it has not happened again since. Even if the controler has a low battery it still dont act goofy now. And by the way there a people who dont have a PS3 that are reporting problems with it. I know I shouldnt bring this up but what was with that xbox360 boat with the banner “xbox360 loves you”?

But if 8% of the controllers out there need to be recalled I'd say that's a pretty significant number. I'd just like some acknowledgment that there is a problem. Here's the most recent word from Sony.... http://ps3.qj.net/PlayStation-3-SIXAXIS-freeze-reports-anew/pg/49/aid/86150 I might be over-reacting a little because both of my controllers exhibit this phenomenon.
