Here is what I followed:

1) On the phone, go to Settings->Applications->USB Settings and select 
the "Mass Storage" Options.
2) Go back to Settings->Applications->Development and select "Stay Awake"

3) Plug in your USB cable to the phone and computer.
The phone will say "USB Connected in the status bar at the top, and a 
USB symbol will appear.
4) Drag down the notification bar from the top and hit the "USB 
Connected: Select to copy files to/from your computer"
5) You get a new window with "USB Connected: You have connected your 
phone to your Computer via USB. Select "Mount" if you want to copy files 
between your computer and your phone's SD card." Select MOUNT.

6) Your notification applet on your computer will squawk about TWO new 
drives being attached. There will be a little one, and a big one. Mount 
the bigger of the two.
