Trouble in paradise--Wireless computer adds miles

I have had a VDO MC1.0+ wireless computer for the past 1000 miles which I really like. However, a few weeks ago I was passed by a flock of bicycles and afterwards looked down to find that about 10 miles had been added to my trip! Yesterday, I stopped for drinks at a cafe way out in the country and when I went to get back on the bike I noted that the cyclometer was reading about 50mph and it had added about 15 miles to the reading. Moving the bike slightly stopped the spurious readings.

Anyway, since I like the style of the VDO I am thinking about switching over to the wired version MC1.0 (no +).

I am just wondering if others are having problems with their wireless cyclometers and if there is a wireless alternative that is robust against spurious pickup.
