Re: PowerBook 12" Battery

[Matt Peacock]

OS X stops charging when it reaches (usually 90-90%), to prevent lots 
of rapid discharges and re-charges damaging the battery.

Your iPod is probably drawing charge and affecting this, disconnect the 
iPod and see what charge you reach before it stops, if it is still 88%, 
phone Apple support.

i have the same pb with mine.
as far as i know, it's just a bug that says your
battery isn't fully
charged (when it actually is).
it only happens when you plug the pb in with 93% or
more battery life.
(do i make myself clear?)
try plugging in your pb when it has less than 93%
battery life, the
charge will hopefully go up to 100%.

Thanks. The only thing is is it happens to me to no
matter where the charge is. Last night it was 46% when
I plugged it in and it quit charging (or saying it was
charging) at 88%. Was the reading wrong? Could it
actually have been 93% or more charged?
