Apple Notes/Tip on New 13in MacBook Pro (Retina) Keyboard/Trackpad Freeze
(Info/Tip from Apple support)

Apple is aware of rare circumstances where the built-in keyboard and Multi-Touch trackpad may become unresponsive on (Late 2013) 13" MacBook Pro with Retina display and is working on an update to resolve this behavior.

If you experience this issue, reset the keyboard and trackpad by closing the computer's display for approximately one minute and then open it.

(Update: On Nov. 7th, Apple posted an EFI firmware update to address this problem.)
