Problems with Key Immobilizer?

Problems with Key Immobilizer?
Has anyone had any problems with their key immobilizer? I've had problems starting my car 4 times within the past week.
I get in, turn the key and the car will run for 2-3 seconds. Then it immediately dies and the key light flashes on the instument cluster. In all cases, if I remove the key and wait a few seconds and try again, it will start fine after 2-3 cranks.
I'm using the key that I always use so I'm going to switch to my spare and see if it happens again. That should give a clue as to if it is a problem in the key or the immobilizer.
Obviously it needs to go to the dealer but I'm surious to see if others have had the same problem.
Thanks-
Blake
