fso - charging question

[Leonti Bielski]

I understand it, but why GSM dries _battery_ while connected? Why it
is not possible to switch power source to usb completely?
When I take my battery out phone is still working, so there is no need
to actually drain battery while connected to power source.
Isn't that right?
