Jan, This is expected because of the battery reading method that the PK uses. It uses what is called a voltage reading, essentially it compares how much power is being consumed and will report it in terms of a percentage. This is why when the AC Adapter is plugged in it will always report 100% no matter the actual state of the battery. You might also notice that it will drop a significant amount when you are performing power hungry task like browsing the Internet using a Wireless card, but then will jump back up when you are off the Internet.
So there is nothing wrong here, all expected.

I generally let it run down until about 9 percent or so and then recharge. I find the gbattery low rather annoying when I know I have a couple hours of use left. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but don't think so.
