Strange. My battery is at full charge according to the % display on the battery meter. However, the monitor says "calculating...until full" and the power adaptor LED is orange.

Should I be concerned?

You shouldn't have to worry. I had a similar thing with my 17" PB a few weeks ago. I was concerned when it happened, but it eventually went away (green light and no charging status). It took a fair amount of time, and I've only had it happen to me once.

My 12" does this whenever I recharge the battery after it was fully discharged (i.e. calibration). But then after I drain the battery down a bit and then charge it back up, when it hits 100% it goes green. Weird.
