I've had my 1000S for a few weeks now and am pretty happy with it. I've had a battery problem since the 1.02 firmware upgrade though. The charge indicator no longer gives me an accurate reading - my iRex consistently dies on me whilst still showing one bar of power left. This is really annoying, especially if the power cuts with no warning and I lose the notes I've been making.

I've gone through several full charge and drain cycles but it doesn't seem to be getting any better.

Any of you guys experiencing similar problems? Do you know whether there is a way to recalibrate the battery?
