Hadn't clocked the battery life was so poor, had looked at the six-cell option which is more reasonable. More usefully it indicates that you can haggle over the price in the review I meant to link above.
Having an 8 hour battery life is really useful... Couple of times I've gone to work and forgotten the charger, no problem. Transatlantic flights.. easy.. Just having it sat around thehouse means you dont have to worry about charging the thing up or having leads everywhere.. If you 100% the cpu it drops to c.3 hours but great for normal use.. I Like the idea of a touch screen though...
