Hope Entertainment is the right place

Anyway, bought 20g 4th Gen iPod on Ebay from USA. All works fine except this...

I charged via PC (FWire) until fully charged. Then if I use iPod battery is showing full. However, if I leave for a few days and use I get no immediate response from pressing the buttons, I get an Apple logo, then it springs to life. However, the battery is showing about half used (even though its been off for a couple of days).

I am in the process of running down and re-charging using proper power adapter, but anyone found this ? And why does it take a while to start (with that apple logo thing) ?

Apart from that it actually works fine (transferring, playing, updating, iTrip etc). I also have the latest update on it 2-22 I think.

Thanks.
SBH.
