flyingtablet · 06-26-2009, 03:48 PM

I have lots of PDF papers to read and I often find related papers that
I want to upload to Kindle DX.
However, DX does not allow download of PDF through whispernet.
I have to use USB.

But the moment I plug in the USB cable, it starts charging.

I think the battery's lifespan also depends on charging cycle (even
if not complete charging)

Any comments?
