I had increased the minimum level because I thought it was lower than the safe limit (under which no writes are done and state is not saved), but I've checked more thoroughly and I was mistaken. The unsafe level is player-specific but it appears to generally be quite a bit lower than 5%. So I've now added the 5% warning. > Since the iPod Nano charges more efficiently when the Apple firmware is > loaded, I would love to have a 5% warning.
