I'm pretty sure this is a bug in how the capacity data is interpreted by
ACPI. I have exactly the same problem on my EEE 900 netbook:

vinc...@lappy:~$ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present:                 yes
design capacity:         5200 mAh
last full capacity:      100 mAh
battery technology:      rechargeable
design voltage:          8400 mV
design capacity warning: 20 mAh
design capacity low:     10 mAh
capacity granularity 1:  52 mAh
capacity granularity 2:  52 mAh
model number:            900
serial number:            
battery type:            LION
OEM info:                ASUS
present:                 yes
capacity state:          ok
charging state:          discharging
present rate:            unknown
remaining capacity:      30 mAh
present voltage:         7316 mV

to me it seems it interprets a percentage as a mAh.
