Possibly even a little excessive, now that you mention it, Scola.
EDIT: I wonder if the phone not charging all the way is because I have the Mini set to sleep itself pretty quickly. Would that shut off power to the USB ports as well?
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
8½ hours of sleep per night is perfectly normal.
Dear everyone without babies,
I hate you all.
Love, Jess

Yes, that is probably the culprit.

Does the iPhone indicate that it's charging when your mini is asleep?

Yeah, I've now popped it in the cradle charger. The charge bar has jumped up a bunch, but now it feels like it's stalled again, though that may just be me staring at the kettle, going "boil, boil, boil, boil....."

I don't know, Tom, I was asleep!
Less sarcastically: When I woke up the mini this morning, the phone lit up, and made its happy little "I'm charging!" bleep, so that's the closest I can get to giving an answer to that question at the moment. I can probably give a better answer by tomorrow.

I'd say use the cable and a/c charger if you want to charge overnight. For me, I sit at the computer while watching TV, so I plop it in the cradle then, and it charges by the time I crawl into bed.

If it were already charging, it wouldn't need to make the beep.

Yeah, now that I've walked away from the iPhone, it has charged up pretty much all the way now. Okay, cradle charger for charging over night, and until I get over the shininess of it, carry that cradle charger with me at all times.

I'm transferring all the media off the old razr phone. Considering how much I scoffed at "my phone has a camera, shouldn't a phone be a phone", I sure did take a LOT of pictures with it.
So, a question. My old razr, it's with Cingular. It has the SIM card in it. If I try and sell it, I should take the SIM card, right? And is it "unlocked" or "locked" Not sure what the difference is.
