I have a spare battery for my 2210 that hardly gets used at all. Is it OK if I just keep it plugged in and charged all the time so it is ready to go?

I'd say; charge it once every month or so if you don't use it. Over that period of time the charge drops by only 20-30% or so... :) Too many charge cycles will age the battery quicker, though just time alone will have the worst impact. Give this (http://www.technick.net/public/code/index.php?load_page=http%3A//www.technick.net/public/code/cp_dpage.php%3Faiocp_dp%3Dguide_bpw2_00_toc) article a read... Janekh pointed me to this, and you can find out all you need to know about batteries over there :mrgreen:
