its just a bit weird why it stays on while its off u can keep hearing the hard drive spinning or if you have a cd in you hear that spinning for a while surley it should switch off or in the end surly it will drain the battery ???

I have a Rev H and it does the same. I worried at first that it was going to drain the battery but never had an issue. It does turn off after a few minutes.
