CNET has a detailed review:
http://reviews.cnet.com/tablets/goog...5513295-2.html

There are... quirks...
The battery is superslow to charge and playing GPU intensive games while charging...doesn't. The battery still discharges despite being plugged-in.
Watching a 1080p movie while charging neither charges nor discharges.

Apparently the microUSB charger can't deliver enough current to match the tablet's energy appetite when it's working full-tilt. Charging looks to be an overnight endeavor.

Interesting point.
(The screen also has contrast issues when compared to other Premium tablets; blacks aren't as dark nor whites as bright as they could be. Only an issue for videophiles, I suppose. If you're a fan of Panasonic plasma displays this migh not be the tablet for you. )
