Re: concerned about whether or not my battery is charging
Yes, Ni-cad batteries are effected on either end. What people are less aware of, however, is that Ni-cad batteries also suffer if you discharge them too much. Flatlining a Ni-cad battery is as bad as over-charging it.

Re: concerned about whether or not my battery is charging
Yes, in fact, it has come out that the Braille Note actually has ni-cad batteries sealed inside it, so yes, with said products, it is essential to follow ni-cad charging requirements. Rather amusing too, considering how much the product costs and how much the replacement of batteries costs.

Re: concerned about whether or not my battery is charging
Ok, this is a li-polymer battery. the way to charge and discharge it is quite different from ni-cad batteries. With ni-cad batteries, any time you do not fully charge the battery, a chemical change occurs within the battery that causes it to lose a little bit of its total capacity. This is not the case with the li-ion and li-polymer batteries. When the iPhone battery reaches the high 90% range, the system switches to trickle charge. It then takes significantly longer for the battery to charge to maximum capacity. At 100% consider the battery to be full. Trickle charge continues until the battery is completely full. Then, if left on the charger, the battery loses charge until it is just at the switching point between 99% and 100%, at which point, the trickle charging circuit activates again. Apple seems to have adjusted the 100% mark down a little to cover the start and stop trickle-charge cycle.

Re: concerned about whether or not my battery is charging
I'm not sure what kind of battery is used in a Braille Note, but LI batteries, which are now the most commonly used batteries in mobile devices, won't suffer if they're not completely charged. I know NiCad batteries suffered from the memory effect, so they liked to be all used up before they were charged up again, but I'm not sure even they were negatively impacted by not being completely charged up.

In the status bar, that’s where it says “charging” for the longest time and at some point eventually it goes to “on AC power.” Thanks.

Re: concerned about whether or not my battery is charging
Craig, yes this is the standard battery. It seems the issue I described is getting worse but is sometimes more noticeable than others.
