Tuba, your understanding is correct as far as we know. It's all based on Kenban's measurments and the way the thing operates, since Dell hasn't tols us how it works. One additional factor is that when the Axim thinks it has sufficient power, but doesn't, it can actually draw power FROM the battery to charge the battery. That's going to be a losing proposition, so the battery actually decays faster with that power than it would with no power at all.
