So, I have this problem on my MAC where it will turn itself off and go into sleep mode... I noticed it happened tonight, and I saw that my blackberry was near it.

Does the blackberry itself (NOT the case) have a magnet in it?

crap - i meant MAGNET not battery in the title. sorry

i made a post about this awhile ago, surprised me too lol
with help i came to the conclusion that the speaker in the phone, which physically speaking is itself a magnet, affects with the laptop that also uses magnets to initiate the lid closing.

i found the original link lol

so it's normal that my phone would act as a magnet and would sometimes put it to sleep?
good to know...thanks!

well i wouldnt call it normal. its called magnetic interference for a reason.
more of a side effect, just the way speakers are designed. but now you know its not too big of an issue to lose sleep over :p
