Yeah, it lets it drop to about 97% before it starts charging again. That doesn't really count, although I guess it's nice.

Yes this is not real battery care-taking. Ubuntu does it by default like that (I guess linux kernel in general). Although the low and high thresholds (97 and 100% resp.) are adjustable.
