Still no dice. My tablet has been charging for the past 8 hours on an OEM charger, turned off. Still shows charging.

I've had the same behaviour as rggavitt -- unplug, replug and it'll sometimes switch. Not everytime, but as I originally wrote it seems like it needs activity.

Also, if I'm actually using it, sometimes the scrolling battery meter will stop scrolling but it'll show Charging if I tap on it.

I think it actually does stop charging. That function is often partiallly built into the battery and charging hardware -- but I'm no expert in this. The stopped scrolling meter seems to support this.
