Yes, the charger chip on n900 handles the charge and re-charge itself.

It's debatable whether the battery meter has any logic in it.

would never turning the charger off make any difference?
It would wear out your battery faster.

would using the charger from an n86 or n97 or using the old round style to micro usb converter make any difference?
No. The thing you plug into the phone is just a powersupply. It has no logic in it.

What most battery meters usually do is show 100% when you unplug, regardless of the current true state of charge as long as it isn't wildly incorrect. I guess they forgot that part.
