oh shii... i got the same problem with keyboard an trackpad hang as well! but i know where the problem lies and it is NOT THE LOGIC BOARD.
it is actually the connector for the keyboard and mouse to the logic board just right above (or below if you turn your mbp up side down) the battery which is loose. i used a foam padding and put it on top of the connector so that the connector wont come loose  it really helps |

have you sent yours to repair? if not you might want to try to try the method that i used
 try placing a small padding or foam on the marked red spot. it seems that the connector that connects the keyboard and trackpad to the logic board is loose due to the heat. when i took out my battery i can feel the cable is abit bulged out and when i used a padding and push it in between the battery and the cable so that the cable will not be too loose it solved the problem and i have no more unresponsive keyboard and trackpad.

QUOTE(jasperng @ Oct 22 2009, 06:06 AM) =/ if I hadnt bbought my mbp. I would have go for this new macbook pro +_+ since it also has multi touch. there are other plus point like dedicated graphic, better aluminium build, firewire, etc that will boost the sales of mbp Im curious why apple made this decision to include multi touch to mac book. wouldnt this lower the sale of mbp ? I always though multi touch is something only mbp should have in order to differentiate it from normal mac book. sigh -.- now I dont feel good after paying extra 1500++ just for better processor, SD slot and firewire slot.  Multitouch is not something exclusive. Apple find it so helpful in increasing usability it also included it on imac line |

QUOTE(davidmak @ Oct 22 2009, 10:03 PM) Seeing what happened with the line of iMacs, I guess the best they can do is offer Core i5 on the top end. Intel Core i7 could be reserved for Mac Pros. So if we apply this trend on the next refresh of MacBook Pros, I guess the entry levels and mid levels would get a speed bump but still using the current generation Core 2 Duo. The highest end namely the MacBook Pro 17 may get a Core i5. if you notice the new iMacs with Core i5/i7 processor is riding with ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphic card I just don't see the Core i5/i7 line of processors fit for general audience yet with its current price levels. And isn't it weird that Apple now has a next generation processor (Core i5) based on the Nvidia chipset? I thought Nvidia is hitting a roadblock with the licensing dispute? Or maybe its not using an Nvidia chipset? I'm really anxious to see what new chipset Apple will be using for its MacBook Pros. Still stuck with Nvidia 9400M or something new? Will it still support next generation Intel processors with the current licensing dispute? So i guess no nvidia chipset for Core i5/i7 |
