But did you try writing to it. I had the same experience as you. Plug it in and it is automagically recognized. Remove it, and it's gone. Then I tried to write a file to it. Nope, can't do it. Tried to change permissions. Not allowed. Heck, not even root would do it.
I've seen that behavior. USB-stick that was not writeable in Linux, but it was in Windows, the reason for that... It had been formated with NTFS... Just run and do a quick mkreiserfs on it and complain about it not being read- or writeable in Windows (then it is Linux that damaged it, normal logic there)
Nice to look at, but totally useless.
