it could be a faulty charger, fw bug or the batt itself. let it check in se service, hard to say "blind" what s the problem.

I don't know about the w800i, but on my dap (rio carbon), the battery indicator needs to be "calibrated", so you have to charge it fully, then use it untill the battery is empty, and recharge it fully. And then it shows 100%
If you don't, the battery works just as well, only the indicator display 80-90% when it should display 100%.

I assume it might the same with the w800i.

PS : I should have mine tonight, hehe ^^
