So, I plugged in the power to my PB to start charging it (while it was off so that it would turn it on and start charging)....and something different happened. It started charging without turning on! Now the PB does not need to be on to charge! The LED has a second use finally LOL. It blinks green just as the BB phones do until they are fully charged.
Hey! Having a positive thread like this is better than the troll garbage we have been seeing out there! I love my PB. Would never trade one for an iPad.
