This isnt really a problem...I dont think but it is very Odd. Yesterday I had my extra Battery in the cradle charging all day. Last night I switched batteries and I put the one that had been in the device into the extra charge slot of the cradle. The battery was at about 35% when I pulled it out. I started using my Axim with the fully charged battery with WiFi on and I was getting about 2mins per % while on Wifi. Dont know if that is good or not. But the weird thing was that after about 5-10 mins the Green light on the Cradle came on as if the battery was done charging? I thought that the cradle maybe was overheated or something so I unplugged it and stoped using it for the night. This morning I put the same battery back in and again after like 5 mins the green light came on. So I put this battery back into my axim and at the Current moment I have been running it for around 21 mins....on and off playing games and it is still holding at 100%?!?!? Is it possible that the battery charged this fast!?!?!? Or am I gonna see the battery suddenly drop to like 30% soon!? I asked a friend who has the dell and he says that when he puts his device in the cradle it charges very quickly.

I usually don’t let mine get as low as 30% (doing so shortens your battery life), but the power light and meter on the Axim reports it’s back to 100% very quickly after plugging it in. I cannot remember where I read it – on this site or another, but the feeling I have is that these ‘reports’ are somewhat over estimates by the Axim and that it’s generally better to keep charging past the 100%. In fact, the batteries themselves have built-in circuitry which will prevent them from being overcharged so there shouldn’t be any problem with just leaving the battery in the charger or the Axim connected to the power supply.
