Yes, the Maximite tells the host that it needs a maximum of 200mA. However I think that most hosts ignore that and give you the full 500mA anyway. The Colour Maximite should work with USB voltages as low as 4.3V. I don't know what it is with USB power but it has affected many people (it could be high speed spikes on the USB 5V). Moving to a plug pack nearly always fixes the issue. That is a strange one and I have not seen it. I guess that it could be the crystal but check your soldering around there first.
