2002 S wont start intermittant no crank

Just bought my first P car after years of BMW M's and it's certainly a whole different beast. Really loving the experience. I have a laundry list of items I want to take care of and a few the PPI turned up. The car has 65,000 on the clock. My immediate pressing issue is an occasional no crank condition. The PPI had the issue once and thought it was the clutch switch which they replaced and it didn't recur until I had the car a day. I have jumpered the clutch switch when the issue has recurred to no effect. I drove the car nearly 200 miles yesterday with maybe a dozen start/stops and in never failed to start. This morning after a 30 minute trip it started the first time then another 30 minute trip and it wont restart. This time I was on a hill and actually rolled it and popped the clutch and it started right up. Still wont start with the key. The fact that it pop started to me rules out the immobilizer? I've switch the relays in the trunk block - even replaced with new and no change. Possibly an ignition switch so I have ordered a new one. I can't be positive but it seems to be worse when it has been run then sat and heat-sinked for awhile. I think that covers my diagnostics that I picked up from searching the boards, any other suggestions? Thanks!
