    I always like to fully charge any new device before use,

    It ensures you get the longest life out of the battery in the long run.

    Of course you can just plug it in and fire away if you want!

    When you say fully charge do you mean an overnight charge? Or just plug it in for 3-4 hours?

    Well with phones and my last laptop and my DS and PSP I have always left them plugged for around 12 hours before the first use.

    Maybe it doesnt help or maybe it does, just something I have done, I have heard that it is better for the longterm performance of the battery
