Something else that should be mentioned that even when the indicator in
extras says "charged" the battery is still getting a charge, just not a
fast one. When plugged in the Newt is always "trickle Charging" the battery
even if the indicator says "charged". If you use one of the battery tools
mentioned before (or one that hasn't I use Nick's Battmon) they all show the
state of the charge, and weather the battery is fast charging or trickle
charging.
