Correct, as I understand it, once the charge is complete, the ipod is 100% ac and the battery is idle.

So according to the battery life faq, discharging the ipod completely will drain the battery faster than just short uses. I use my ipod battery at work too, so in that interest I have it on a charger while at work so the battery is not being used. If I'm going to be stationary while listening to the ipod and have access to power, I'll make it a point to be on ac power instead of discharging the battery. Hopefully my battery will last a long time.
