Will this work while it is being charged?

Yes it does, I just plugged it into a usb port on my comp AND a stand alone charger and it played while plugged into both. The previous one I had (MW600 I think) did not operate while being charged... I have this one paired with an iogear BT transmitter to my comp. This "gateway" has been far more reliable than the MW600 and has longer battery life, I would guesstimate 2x. From my personal experience though the range seems somewhat shorter than the MW600, in the real world I get about 50 feet with 2 insulated walls between, which I guess is pretty good.

Yes it will start at the point that you left off on when being charged or being shut off

Yes, however it needs to reach a certain level of charge before it's useable.

If you plug it into a computer that is on, not in sleep mode, it should start charging right away. No tricks.

Yes, it does charge while you use it. It will charge regardless of what your doing, just like if you were using your phone while its charging. A standard charger and cable is used in conjunction with this.

I don't, think so. I believe you will have to charge it for a period of time first.

If you are wondering wether your can plug it so that you can continue using it right after the battery discharges, then the answer is no. It will work while plugged in only if the battery has still some charge in it.

Yes it will work just fine. You can plug it to the charger while it's working. Have a good one

No. It Does that while it charges. When it is done, all the lights will go off

No, you'll have to charge it for a few minutes and then leave it plugged in to use it.

Yes it worked that way for me. I just plugged it in and it began to charge.

It will work while charging, by holding down the MODE button while applying power. See my review for full instructions.

Yes it will continue to charge. There's no on/off switch as quoted earlier. You can however check the charging level via the indicator.

Yes it will work while plugged in. But the battery lasts long while charged.

yes I don't see why it would not work, you should use a charge controller to prevent overcharging

Of course you can. All that will happen is a red light will be up. The red light means its charging. I do this all the time.
