I'm pretty sure it really is drawing too much power. I had 3 different
systems that all showed the same symptoms, and lots of other Samsung
Intercept users have complained of similar problems. If there was
some way to just make it talk USB without also insisting on trying to
charge the battery when plugged in, it might be OK :-).
You could buy a cheap USB cable (monoprice.com?) and snip the power wires...
