If I charge up the battery using the Cube, the clock resets and I seem to have limited battery life. If I let it run down completely and recharge using the AC adapter, the clock does not work and the unit has much longer battery life. some say a reset does the same thing. I tried it while still connected to the cube and it re-synced and didn't kill the clock. We'll see. On Tuesday, February 11, 2003, at 09:00 PM, Chris Lim wrote: > Have you tried a hard reset?
