Yep, I can see why you'd prefer the OEM app, was just curious if you'd
seen the built in.

For status info using the built in system you turn on the applet in
the upper panel (that option is there in Power Management too) and it
will give you a basic amount of charge indication.

Thanks for letting me know what you found out.
