Part of it no, part of it yes.

The no part.

I've charged it every night I've had it save for one night, which was to see how well it did while being suspended, and every time I'd look at it in the morning after charging it the charge would be at 99% or 100%.

The yes part.

I've noticed some very unusual jumps in the amount of charge that the device is supposed to have after I've plugged it into my PC. For instance. I just plugged in my NC to my computer. I went through all of the files as I wanted to delete a failed download. I had had a charge of 88% prior to plugging it in, had it plugged in for a matter of minutes, and when I unplugged it it was back at 100%.

You're only supposed to get a "trickle" charge when connected to a PC, so there's only one conclusion that I can reach, and that's the software used to track the battery charge isn't functioning properly.
