Master cylinder or abs?
The master cylinder uses electricity for power rather than the old style vacuum type... just a thought

My brakes are doing something similar, but it's not exactly as you describe. After sitting for a few hours, the first stop sneaks up on me. I press the pedal and it seems to pass the point where I normally feel some resistance. After a bit more travel, it grabs suddenly. It's almost as if the first stop every morning is a panic stop. After that, it's fine. The dealer assures me that there's nothing wrong with it, but I suspect I'll be bringing it back, soon.
And yes, on my most recent visit, I got an H3 as a loaner. On my previous visit, they gave me a Trail Blazer - what's up with that?

I was given a Buick Enclave as a loaner. What a great CUV.
My brakes work great ever since I got my new master cylinder. Hopefully that will solve your problem also.
