Default '06 Accord Possible Transmission Problem

This car has the 4 cylinder engine with the 5 speed Auto Tranny. Earlier today, after a cold start and letting the car warm up for at least 5 minutes (our weather here has been horrendous for the past week, extremely cold and lots of snow), I pulled out onto my street and accellorated slowly due to the lousy road conditions. I noticed this because of what my tacho told me and how the engine felt when it happened. The tacho dropped about 200rpm, like as if the clutch was engaging but the tranny didnt' want to shift into 3rd gear. After the tacho dropping 3 times in a matter of seconds, it shifted into 2nd gear and so on. This didn't happen again and the car was shifting fine once the engine was fully warmed up. The fluid is full and the tranny was just serviced about 3 weeks ago. The car has about 88k on it and I asked to have the tranny serviced since the Maintenance Minder hadn't yet called for the "Code 3" and I felt it would have been a good idea to get the new fluid in it before the car goes into its 5th winter! I have an appointment tomorrow morning with my Honda Dealer to have the tranny looked at. Any ideas here?
