hi

on my pismo the battery can't hold 100% charge. When the battery is 100%
full, charging is stopped until the battery lost 5% ...
i think apple keeps the battery full by recharging it when it lost 5%
capacity and not keep charging ... because full is full :-)
so this isn't a defective ... i hope ;)

cya,
