Not on either of my two N900s. The value is stored in EEPROM, and persists through a reflash, through a change of battery and through being without a battery for a month. Like I said, it's not proof...

This does not say anything, if the battery was removed for a few hours, then the counter is reset and it starts again from zero (just confirmed with my dual-scud).
So no proof at all (only maybe...

Re: View Usage/Logs

The script in question is on the Wiki page I linked to in the above post: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/jrbme/bq27200

You'll need to copy that into a file, make it executable and run it.

You don't need to have separate charging method, it's purely optional. Dual-scud can be charged like every N900 battery - via microUSB cable.

@Old Abe,

Happy about that :)

I'd recommend having a look at BackupMenu as well as the thread about a recovery console. May help you in case you need to unbrick the N900 :)
