Forcing people to buy Windows 7 is certainly not the solution.

Note I checked the format of the internal memory and it is definitely FAT32. I believe the default for XP and perhaps Mac's is FAT (FAT16). This may be the problem.

Interesting.

I just hooked mine to Ubuntu and looked at it with Disk Utility :

And my main was FAT (16 bit) and the 4G SD card was FAT32

Maybe I reformatted along the way. The (small) size of the internal does not dictate that FAT32 must be used as with larger sizes.
