Er no... I don't think so... as I mentioned before...

Quote:the lithium charger IC is limited to 3A input current to protect the power supply

... so if you provide more than 3A... it won't doing anything other than ensure that the PSU isn't overloaded.

Me! Data is groot! :-P And IIRC it'll only scroll if you do more than 10 or so lines.

Damn... maybe the power monitoring on the PBP isn't as good/detailed as on the PB? Due to the different PMIC and CPU combination.

I suspect so... if it's having to use the battery, then it's obviously not letting enough come in from the external supply.
