Comment(by frankprindle):

 Richard, I returned my original XO due to sticky key problems. Received my
 replacement on Tuesday 1/29/08. No sticky key problems so far, but the bad
 news is that the battery simply won't charge. The first time I tried
 unplugging the power supply, the XO ran for about 10 minutes and then just
 shut down without warning. Now no amount of charging gives me any
 operation time with the battery. When the supply is plugged in, the
 battery indicator is solid green indicating fully charged, and the sugar
 battery meter is filled and reads "Battery fully charged". Nonetheless,
 removing the power supply causes immediate shutdown, and it won't boot at
 all until I reinstall the power plug. The unit came with Q2D06/650. I
 updated to Q2D07/656, but still have the same behavior. Does this mean I
 need to return the whole unit again, or just the battery?

 This is not fun.
