ppa updated, the string patch should be complete now. I'll test it for a
couple more days before sending upstream. Here are the overall changes:

Battery charged:
title = "Battery Charged"
message = NONE
(message used to be: "Your laptop battery is now fully charged")
todo: change title from "battery charged" -> battery fully charged

Battery discharging (actually removed in Ubuntu, but in the upstream version):
title ="Battery Discharging"
message = "The AC power has been unplugged."
(message used to be "The AC power has been unplugged. The system is now using 
battery power.")

Critical and Low battery warnings:
If you have no peripheral batteries (pda, phone, kb, mouse, UPS):
title = "Battery low"
if you have peripherals:
title = "Laptop battery low"
message = "25 minutes remaining"
or in the case of critical battery
message = "25 minutes until shutdown"
(old message showed percentage remaining and had the warning "...if the AC is 
not connected.")
(Also removed the sentence You have approximately 25 minutes of remaining 
battery life (percent%). since the battery life remaining and % *beyond* the 
critical shutdown point doesn't matter since your computer will shutdown before 
you even see it.)


Mouse over notification bubbles:
title = NOTHING (used to be nondescript "Power Information")

When announcing the battery is full, it now does not show the percentage
(since it would be redundant).

The other notifications should stay verbose since GPM doesn't just
manage laptop batteries. This way you can see the power status of every
peripheral in your system at once by mousing over the applet. Any
comments regarding these changes? Try to plug in phones/pdas and make
sure it's working properly.
