Had my mb now for a few weeks and all was going well until 3 days ago when it suddenly started crashing when resuming from sleep, but only if it had been asleep longer than about 10 minutes.
Open the lid and password screen comes up ok, enter password hit return and screen goes black.
This behaviour coincided with my purchase of a logitech bluetooth pilot mouse, so I did a few tests.

I found that the mb only crashes if the bluetooth was switched on and the mouse connected when the lid was closed. If I disconnect the bluetooth before closing the lid then there are no crashes and this is after 1hr, 2hr and 3hrs sleep intervals.

I'll keep monitoring it for a few more days and report back.

yep, definite problem with the logitech bluetooth pilot mouse.
Switch the mouse off before sleeping mac and everythings ok, leave mouse on when sleeping mac and wait 10-15 minutes try to resume and you get a black screen crash.

Admin might want to move this thread to peripherals, and maybe retitle it.

Found a halfway house solution.
Just turn off the MacBook Bluetooth setting 'Allow Bluetooth Devices to wake this computer'

This thread needs moving to Peripherals.
