- I just plugged my Samsung portable for 3 days (just because the manual gave
- me the wrong info and I was stupid enough to follow it!). I talked to tech
- support who told me that I should not plug my portable in for so long. He
- said something about getting the battery all warmed up and that's not good!!
- No reasons given though! I suppose if you don't care about the battery,
- there should be no harm done.
