It sounds like a fam (File Alteration Monitor) problem. To check what
program is locking your device, try:

lsof /media/zip

You can "force" to unmount it with the "lazy" parameter:

umount -l /media/zip

This problems of fam could be solved with the new monitor, gamin, that
will replace fam in the next release of Ubuntu, I think.
