First off, love the new Pearl! I'm thrilled with this phone... except I'm having a problem...

-I'm running Mac OS X Leopard
-I bought a 4G Sandisk microSDHC card
-Formatted card in the phone, phone recognizes & writes to it perfectly
-I can write to the phone via Bluetooth push/pull

When I connect the phone to the computer via USB, it prompts to enable Mass Storage Mode. I select "Yes," and for about 3 seconds everything seems to be working fine...

...I see the drive come up in my Disk Utility
...and then the Blackberry RESTARTS!

This is a HARD restart - takes a good minute (with hourglass) at least for the phone to turn all the way back on. If I leave it connected via USB, it prompts me at startup to enable Mass Storage, and the process repeats itself.

I have tried removing the battery of the phone to no avail.

Any sage suggestions?
Your help would be much appreciated!
