USB problems in new MBP's?

[Relznuk]

I have had several issues with the USB on my brand-new Core i5 macbook pro. It randomly disconnects USB devices. I've had the issue with multiple USB devices - same story with each one. Further, iTunes will only recognize my iPhone if it is in the port nearest the magsafe connector. The other port fails to recognize my iPhone entirely.

Anyone else having a USB issue on their base 15" that was released today?

Furthermore, any suggestions of what to do about it? I'm having a hell of a time restoring my iPhone with this issue... And the Apple Store is over an hour away - I planned a special trip to buy this laptop.

Hope its not a widespread problem.....Im surprised nobody has chimed in yet.

I got a 17" i7 mbp and its using one usb from the 24" cinema display while my mouse and keyboard is connected to the 24" usb hub (back).

So far no issues (crossing fingers).
