    Hey, my P5020D is on the FedEx truck "out for delivery"!

    Quick question, when it arrives, what is the first thing I should do? Hook it up and charge the battery? Or just run it until the battery dies, then recharge it fully?

    Thanks,

    Nobbie

    The latest article I read said charge it fully and drain three times to cycle the battery.

    Ooops![xx(]I played around with it right out of the box. Got it down to about 36% then charged it up. I'm sure it's fine.

    I like how it goes into standby when you close the lid. Sweet![8D]
