Don't Drain The Battery
--------------------------------------------------
With Lithium batteries there is no advantage to draining the battery. The battery will infact last longer with partial rather than full discharges. There is no battery memory effect with a lithium battery - you can charge the battery whenever you like without fear of reducing its charge capacity, and you do not need to drain a lithium battery completely before recharging it.

In response to lots of questions about the battery, I've explained things in greater detail on page 4 of this thread.

Remote Control
--------------------------------------------------
I only just discovered what the remote control application is capable of, so I think this is worth a mention for those of you that might have thought nothing of it... I've used the SE developer tools to customize a remote for winamp, easier to use than windows notepad! I've also made a shortcut pointing to C:/WINDOWS/system32/shutdown.exe -s -t 5 -c "K750i Bluetooth remote command" which is a network command to shut down the computer after 5 seconds. If you put the shortcut in the start menu somewhere, you can assign a shortcut key to execute it e.g. CTRL+ALT+0. Which in turn you can program your remote to use on one of it's buttons.
