Why does laptop battery show < 100% charge

This is something that has been driving me crazy over the last several
weeks.  I have my laptop plugged into AC power and has been plugged into AC
power for several days now, but the battery applet shows 97.3% charge.  It
has been showing < 100% for several days and never reaches 100%.  The
battery is less than 3 months old.  I'm running F11 with all the latest
updates.

I would appreciate any ideas as to why this is the case.  There have been no
power outages so it seems to me there is no reason my battery should show <
100% charge.

In case it makes a difference I'm running wireless on a 3945ABG.  The
processor is a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7200  @ 2.00GHz

Thanks,
Paolo
