Whoa, I has an experience like Doughy's. I booted up without my mouse plugged in ... typed out abunchof lines ... no pauses/repeats. plugged the mouse in ... typed ... got repeats ... checked dmesg and saw new messages about a USB device. Unplugged mouse and it was okay again. Plugged the mouse into a different controller and I haven't had any issues (yet)

Sometime I find a new 'fix' for this bug and it comes right back after a few days, so who knows? The last version of Ubuntu that I was able to run on my laptop was Edgy ... it's been unusable in Feisty / Gutsy / Hardy because of this stupid bug. I've been dealing with it for over a year :(
