Some of these folks though are worrying about a 3-4% drop in a night and going all crazy with the weird charging techniques though for no reason.
OK, i thought you meant the device was dead.

I agree, I have a defective unit, and I would have returned it, but I already returned an earlier one with the same problem, so I just didn't want to go thru the hassle again of returning another (you had to mail them to b&n at that time). I kind of knew how to work around the problem from messing with the first bad one for about 3 months before returning it, so I figured I could live with the newer one, and I have. This is not to say I don't wish it was working perfectly!

I agree that folks shouldn't obsess over 4% drop in the night.
