Battery Question
Which is better for the battery that comes with the h5555 iPAQ:

Letting it go down to very little and then charging it fully?

Just charging it alot even when it is not down alot?

Thank for the help.

Welcome to IpaqHQ!

Your unit has a Lithium-ION battery. It is better to keep the battery charged. Constant charging is good for the battery. Letting it drain too low too often is not good for the battery.

ok thanks.

ps. I was a little nervus when i bought my iPAQ becuase i heard some very bad things about it, but after getting it, I LOVE it. I have used the dell's pocket pc, amxus or something like that, and comparing them, iPAQ is much better.
