Palm shield not working properly

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Sometimes nothing gets written if you stand your hand at the shield and you try 
to write at the same time. This normally happens if you touch with your palm on 
the screen before touching with the stylus.. Other times a straight line is 
drawn involuntarily. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Writing normally.... The straight  lines may also be easily reproduced  by 
tapping several times rapidly in two spots (one in an unshielded area and 
another in a shielded one.) 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output would be everything that happens in the palm shielded area 
to be properly. ignored. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The most recent version  as of 19/2/2012
I'm using ice cream sandwich on an asus transformer prime
