OK, i did a bit of digging and found this in one of the debian patches
-- they don't like it either.
My original guess looks to be on the right track. You can probably
change it to what you want. The comment to translators (such as yourself
:) ) is:
TRANSLATORS: the device is discharging and we don't have a time
remaining yet
So debian (and thus ubuntu) report:
%s (estimating...)
You should probably raise this as a bug with the gnome-power-manager
people, and tell them to clarify that message.
