Default Anyone noticing this problem with their slide?

So my g/f just got her slide today, and as we were playing with it throughout the day, we noticed that after a while, the phone would no longer recognize that it had a SD card installed... we'd have to pop the back off, pop out the SD card, then put it back again for the phone to recognize it again. However, after a while, the phone would once again say that the SD card is not connected...

Is this a problem with this specific phone, or is anyone else also experiencing this problem as well?

By any chance was it wiping your phone everytime it did that?

I had that problem with the mytouch 1.2 but not with this yet. I've heard using a class 4 or 6 sd card fixes it but I never tried it.

Nah the phone and all the info in the card seems fine, its just that the phone can't seem to find the card once in a while until you take out then put back the SD card :/

take the phone back and swap it for another one at the store. You could also try getting another SD card. You most likely just have a bad SD card. It happens. I would swap the phone first cause its free (since you already paid for it) and would without a doubt tell you exactly what is wrong.
