When I think back to the N900 hardware lighting talk and the warning about not fixing the CPU's clock to one of the high frequencies, I guess that connecting the N900 to a charger should not change the power settings of the system, i.e. not like with a laptop CPU that's behaving differently when running on batteries. But that's just a guess, someone with more knowledge of the ARM Cortex 8 architecture or even better the N900's architecture (Nokian's, where are you?) should have the right answer to that.
