charging

ok I have my Palm TX now, which is currently charging, at least thats what I hope it's doing. There seems to be no induction thats it's charging at all. I have the thing plugged into the mains and the computer. When I first plugged it in it turned itself on after a minute or so asking me to do a few things on screen, then it told me charge it for 2-3 hours, so I assumed if I clicked next at the bottom thats what it would do (not sure why) so it went into time config, when it got to install software I just turned it off as I assumed thats how u charge it with the thing off. Any ideas?
