Macbook Pro does not wake from sleep

[Toadstool]

I leave my Macbook Pro on all the time (never close the top) but of course it goes to sleep when I'm not using it. Over the course of the past month, there have been about 5 times where I walk over to it and press a button to wake it up, and it's just dead... screen does not come on, plugging in an iPod doesn't wake it up, pressing the Caps Lock key doesn't cause the little Caps Lock light to come on, etc. I have to just hold the power key down 5 seconds to force it to reboot, and then it comes up and asks me to send in a report to Apple (which I do).

Is anyone else having a similar issue? It is pretty rare (5 times in a month) so it's not something I'm too concerned with, but I hope they get a patch for it soon.

this happens to me too, except it never tells me to report it to apple. it doesnt happen often, but i hate restarting the computer improperly. let me know if you here anything about how to fix this

I wonder if it's a PMU issue. Maybe try resetting it.

Didn't seem to work... At least it is infrequent.

Same problem, it has happened several times with mine. Very frustrating.
