Aura HD - Computer connection problems

After getting my 3rd bad aura I today decided to give the HD a try. My experience however has so far been even worse than the aura even if the screen looks fine.

My issues relate to connecting it to my computer and it is behaving very strangely, including:

- Not mounting on my mac when I plug in the USB (there is no prompt to connect to a computer.
- If I then reboot (with the aura unplugged) it then prompts me to connect to a computer even though it is not plugged into anything!
- If I then plug in the usb it does finally mount.
- When I eject the reader it does disappear from my computer however the 'connected and charging' message remains on the reader. Forcing me to switch it off and back on again.
- When I do switch it back on I once again get the 'Computer detected' prompt even though it is not plugged in.
- Lastly I have tried adding books via ADE, Calibre and copy/paste from finder and whilst they are on the device each time the reader itself cannot see them.

Apart from that it is working flawlessly!

Any ideas?
