Operation while plugged in

(1/2) > >>

danoid:
I have a Sansa e280 w/ released 3.0.  It's generally hanging in my kitchen hooked up to a pair of computer speakers so we can have tunes there.  I'd like to leave it plugged in all the time so I don't have to worry about battery SOC.

However, it won't turn off while plugged in.  Finally after 15 seconds of holding the power button it shuts down ungracefully.  Is this intended function?

bluebrother:
The player not shutting down with power attached is an intended function.

danoid:
Why?  It's not charging the battery.  It's just plugged in.  What's the difference?

gevaerts:
As far as I know the hardware doesn't actually allow shutting down with the cable plugged in

bluebrother:
Another reason is to not shut it down as you wouldn't like that when attaching the player to your car ...
