whys it not the same with the USB port?? of course it has power to it.. but if nothings plugged into it and power isnt being transferred anywhere, i dont see how your "theory" means anything...

i go back and forth between Android on WinMO and i get hours and hours out of Xandroid when i use it.. yes the battery meter is off, but you can get it close with some of those .apks that people made... but ive never once thought to myself, oh crap, my battery life is terrible now..

just saying..

i appreciate the info, and great job on the successful touchstone mod to your device(yay, magnets, batteries, electronics fun)..
Because the phone is Not supposed to supply a reverse current on
the USB port when sitting idle. And they dont work like lamp sockets
