This started happening out of nowhere! Must've been the new 1.8 firmware update on the MBP.

When I used to close the lid with the iPhone connected, the power to the USB ports would cut off. Not anymore.

Good to know. Now if only they'd release a fix for the stupid screen flickering on my late '08 MPB.
 
It only works for me when I have a power source connected. If not then t he iphone would not stay connected.
 
Well, the superdrive got the update today that actually fixes the winding sound when waking from sleep. 1.8 didn't do it by itself on my MBP.

And charging an iPhone while in sleep mode still works. So don't be afraid to update anything if you had reservations about doing so.
