I'm working on an application that will periodically check information
about the battery (charge level, current draw, etc...), and I'm
getting the information by reading the sysfs files located at /sys/
class/power_supply/battery/.  I noticed some strange behavior with
respect to the reported current draw.  When the phone is plugged in
and charging (via USB in my case) the current will be reported as
anything from 300-450 mA (which seems reasonable to me).  However,
when the phone is unplugged the current will be a constant 5 mA.  I
would expect a much larger number since the phone is powering the
screen, radio, etc...  Has anyone else been working with battery
information and noticed this?

In case it helps I'm using firmware version 1.5, and cupcake 1.5 with
kernel 2.6.27.
