Okay. One more question.
Will the Icon/Braille+ docking station and the Icon/Braille+ use the same
kind of battery (Lithium Ion's?

Hi. I just have a few questions about the Icon/Braille+ Lithium Ion
batteries.
I might be the only one that has noticed this, but my battery charges very
slow when charging through the USB port. I plugged my Braille+ in to the
USB port, and it got to 7 percent of battery in a little less than an hour.
The next time that my battery went completely dead, I plugged it in to AC
power. It charged very fast. It was at about 87 percent in the same amount
of time that it to charge to 7 percent while connected in the USB port.
My next question is about charges of the batteries. How many charges can
you get out of the battery before it starts to not last as long on a full
charge?
If I need to get another battery, do we have to get them from Levelstar, or
can we just by them at some kind of battery store?
My last question I think could be a bug. I mentioned it in my message about
suggestions for a future update. When I am charging my unit, it will be
charging. I will listen in the status menu and think, "That is all that it
has charged?". I will unplug the unit and I will suddenly get 100 percent
of battery life. Has any one else found this problem?
I had to reflash my unit once because I had a lot of problems, and it still
didn't fix the problem. Is there anyway that this can be worked on for a
future update?
