ALthough the idea of having an audible indicator would be nice, I wonder:
1. How many people actually use that feature.
2. Based on one, if the ROI would make it worth the cost of development and 
implementation.
Me personally, I doubt it and I would not want such a feature if it added to 
the cost. It is just one of those features that would be neat, but not quite as 
useful, considering you can get the information prior to shutting down the 
machine. It might be more useful if you did not use the machine often and you 
needed to determine the potential level of charge on your way out the door.
