Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2003 15:57:39 -0800 (PST) I've seen some strange battery levels too. Like when the USB is connected, then disconnected. The batery level reads very low. I turn it off, then back on, then sometimes it's high. But when I turn it on, and it's low, I check out the Info menu, and every minute or so It'll go up a notch for quite a while.
