Hi, I just wanted to know, why the powerbutton (right side) is sometimes red and sometimes blue while loading per USB? With the wallcharger it's the same. Sometimes red and sometimes blue. Is it a bug? Or does it show if the neo is loading with more power than normal? signature.asc

Red (orange) means it's charging, blue means it's fully charged. and since eg gsm draws power directly from the battery, after a while charging is triggered again -- thus the led switches to orange again. ___ Openmoko community mailing list

Ahh, well, I've never heard accumulator associated with batteries. It's generally an umbrella term for anything that collects something (which makes sense, in an rechargeable battery) -- or else a register in a CPU. :P ___ Openmoko community mailing list

Well, we don't call them accumulators here. The correct name would be rechargeable battery, but generally we would just say 'battery' and let context take care of the rest. Aside from that, if anyone else knows an abbreviation, I'd love to hear it. :P
