lokster and Acreo have it correct. Guttboy has a good link.
Li-Ion batts do not suffer "memory effect" so it is OK to do a partial discharge. There are safety circuits that prevent a full discharge. Other than long term storage you cannot do a full discharge that will damage your batt. Heat is your main enemy for your batts life. So keeping in does theoretically shorten it's life. I like you have mine plugged in 90% of the time and don't worry about it. Here is a link that has more than you ever wanted to know about batts, link.
