YES - a new LEGO driver was deployed on 12/7/07 that addresses the issue of firmware updates in Mac 10.5 (Leopard).

ROBOLAB Users - The new driver is included in the RoboLab 2.9.4 patch as of 12/7/04

LEGO Mindstorms Software Users - The driver update can be downloaded from http://mindstorms.lego.com/support/updates/

Note: Do not attempt to update the Firmware on the NXT from a computer running Mac OS 10.5 without installing this software first.

If your NXT is clicking when you insert batteries, push the hardware reset button for five seconds before you insert the USB cable. This will\nensure that the brick initializes correctly for the firmware download. The hardware reset button is located within the LEGO Technic hole below the USB connector on the NXT brick. If your NXT brick is not clicking when you insert batteries, just go through the normal firmware download process as described within the manual after the patch is installed.
