> I assume the batteries in iPads are the same as in the laptops. Let's face it, most laptops stay plugged in when not mobile. Apple monitors the battery usage and it's rated for 300 (?) cycles.
400 full cycles for my 2 year old MacBook Pro. 1000 full cycles for iPads and iPhone 4's, and perhaps also for newer MacBook Pro's.
> However, every cube you leave plugged in does consume a bit of electricity. So leaving the iPad plugged in won't waste electricity, but leaving the cube plugged in to the wall outlet will.
Speaking of Apple sources for information, can you give us a URL for a data sheet that affirms this statement?
