I'm confused as to why people don't understand what you are saying.
This is an interesting observation. hopefully it something that can be worked out.

Some people need things to be explained cuz they do not like to think that hard for themselves.

Hopefully I can make this simple for those still confused, but it only works if you have the HTC charger that has the backlit HTC logo built into the charger!!!:

1: Take HTC Charger in one hand
2: TP2 with Android running in the other
3: Plug in the USB charging/data cable between the 2 *
4: Notice the HTC backlit logo being lit up
5: Realize that the charger isnt plugged into the wall, BUT the logo is STILL LIT UP!!!**

This most definitely could cause a few things: Inability/problems to charging, Inability to exchange data (whats that jim? data is power!? -google it), and of course, Terrible Battery life!!!

*No, you dont have to set one down to do this unless you have really small hands... or are terrible with your hands... in which case why do you have a TP2 with the keyboard for your terrible hands... (coordination anyone?)
**IE power is flowing from the TP2 to the Charger (Phone ---> Charger) instead of the way its supposed to go, which is from the Charger TO the TP2 (Phone <--- Charger)...

If that doesn't help the confusion... then i guess a video with extra... "special" care taken to "explain" is needed... or a bat...
Well said Kane!!!=D> That definately puts it into laymens terms.
