i am still waiting for it to run out of power. should i just unplug it and let it die even though there is no indication its charging?

i am not running any applications and there are no widgets on the desktop. it has the same settings as when i first turned it on.

the funny thing is the my mac wont even pick it up. i think the connection is broken in the phone but i just got it. i charged it and it worked the first time so i have to be doing something wrong.

turn it on and charge it, any change?

i wouldn't recommend letting it die, turn it on and try again.

Have,you tried opening the keyboard, or rotating the device so it goes into phone mode? For some reason those things have worked for me when I had this issue.
