Yes, it is definitely works. My T1 shuted off after 20 days. I just read books on it, no wifi or anything else. (It was hard to stop myself to use these stuffs, too.
) I read in this time the first three books of The Saga of Heechee by Fedrik Pohl. So trick that removing and pluging in again the charger after the T1 has fully charged is working perfectly for me.
