This is the Sprint Instinct, right?
Yes.
The phone does connect as a disk on a Mac with no drivers but that only started working after an update to the phone firmware so be sure you are up to date.
Interesting to know. Sask Tel might frown on me updating the firmware, though.
If you aren't on Sprint in the US, it might be different, though.
I'm on Sask Tel in Saskatchewan, Canada, so I might be out of luck.
I'll try it with a Centos box later today.
Let me know what happens.
OK, I just verified that it does connect and auto-mounts on the desktop as you'd expect on a centos5 box. But your behavior is what I used to see when connecting to a Mac with the original firmware - and it might have needed the drivers installed to work on windows. Bluetooth would work even before the update but its too slow to be useful with a several-gig micro-sd card.
