HDC-TM700 Won't Format 32GB Card at DVinfo.net

I bought a pair of 32GB ADATA SDHC class 10 cards and the camera won't format either of them.

I get the hour glass and Now Formatting message on the display for several minutes and then it I get the message CARD ERROR PLEASE REFORMAT. I hit exit and the display says CARD FULL.

I popped each of the cards into the SD slot in my Macbook Pro and formatted them MS-DOS. It took only a few seconds and they then work perfectly in the TM700.

Anyone else have a similar experience ?

Kind of leaves me wondering if I should rely on them. I did about a 40 minute 1080P recording with one of them and it worked just fine.
