I'm sure this has already been posted, but I didn't find the answer.. sorry
My problem is that the battery fully charged shows 98% and not 100%, I don't know if the fault is that the guy at the apple store plugged it when showing me everiything was ok so the battery didn't calibrate.
There is a way to reset or recalibrate it?
I feel quite lucky everything works fine and I don't have any dead pixel (by now) but I hate to see that 98%
Ah! anybody knows how to do accented characters with US kb?
I mean ������
Thanks!

not a problem... it's just the nature of recharable batteries...
the gauge is so acruate that it doesn't give leeway...
anything above 96% or so should be fine...
if you don't like it then let your powerbook drain till it puts it's self to sleep then charge it while it's asleep.. that should bring it back to 100%...
My Ti bounces between 96-100 on a weekly bases...
just part of the deal really

And if it gets really annoying, just change the option to NOT show the percentage. If it's charged, it's charged, you know when the plug is not orange

Are those free-ranged animal crackers?

Try and see on the bottom if the 5th light is flashing. If so, it's still charging.
