I'm glad you got it running. For the first few battery cycles do not allow the unit to go anywhere near flat ( about twenty percent ). I typically plug mine in between 5-8 %
Also, be very careful about power down. Do not put your unit to sleep and walk away for extended periods of time ( the battery will go flat and it won't charge again until you go through the time consuming restart ) !!
When you shutdown, make sure the unit is actually OFF. ... no LEDs lit, and no soft black backlight glow. If so, press and hold the power button ( 15 seconds ) until the unit is totally OFF.
Keep the battery charged ( 100% ) when its not used, but, don't just leave it plugged in all the time !
Batteries in general love to be cycled.
