The one thing all Li-Ion batteries have in common is:
1) They perform better if kept charged, e.g. you'll get better response and life out of your li battery if you keep it mostly charged, don't let it get too low before you recharge it.
2) If the voltage gets too low (i.e. if the battery is discharged below normal use, like if there's something actively draining the battery even if the device is not powered on) your battery can "sleep" to the point where it'll basically need a jump-start to get going again.
So short version: It's much better to keep an Li-Ion battery charged, than to let it go too long between charges, don't worry about any memory effect, keep it charged! :-)
