I've got a LG R500 CB-V, and have this behaviour on the hardy heron beta, updated as of April 4:th 2008. It say "running on AC power", and also that the battery is fully charged, even though the battery is not *in* the laptop at all. I disconnected it (always do) while the computer was on, but fully charged.
It supposedly detects the battery removal, because this is the output of /var/log/acpid when puttin the battery in, and the out.
Let me clarify that i do not see the notification icon normally, when booting on AC only, and leave it like that.
