Hi Kevin,

  the PK battery gauge works in a different way from the mPower's, so
it's not possible to have most of the support information mode
functions.  The mPower has a chip in it that keeps track of the state
of the battery.  The PK has a simpler battery monitor - since it's a
smaller machine, there's less space for luxuries - and is based on the
battery voltage.  This is a good way of measuring how much life you
have left in your battery, but it's not quite as sophisticated as
attempting to measure and keep track of the amount of energy being
used, which is what the mPower does.  So we disable some of the
options deliberately.

If you want more detail please let me know.

regards,

Andy.
