Help Samsung Fascinate Problem

Okay, I think there is a problem with my Samsung Fascinate. Every now and then, the menu button on the menu bar at the bottom of the phone will start randomly vibrating, as if it's being pressed, and will make my music skip, or open the menu in a game that I'm playing. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem, and if you could help me, that'd be great! :D

dont have a fascinate. But it sounds like something that simply needs replacing.
I dont believe there would be a setting or anything anyone could tell you to keep a button from activating on it's own....

I have that problem, it has been happening for like the last 3 weeks or so, and it is annoying the heck out of me! I got my fascinate back in late November, and it just recently started acting up =( I'll probably go back to the verizon store sometime this week to see if something can be done. Let me know if you are able to fix the problem!
best of luck to you!! =)

I have a droid x and just this morning the search button activates on its own.

no rhyme or reason. it's just like I'm pressing the search button repeatedly, even voice search will come up. Then after a couple minutes, it stops, then comes back again in 5-10.

Any ideas? I am NOT rooted, but I run Launcher Pro and have had no other problems since last July when the phone came out.
