Hi there BB!

Hope that you and yours are all well.

Sorry for the delay in posting, but my wife has been in hospital for the last 3 weeks.........and not the same one

Anyways, on to the subject?

You have requirements 1 and 2, which are actually contradictory....... a long life means a heavy battery, and that is how it is!

This also contradicts your price considerations, as the long life batteries are expensive, as they are heavy.

How much of a "road warrior" device do you NEED ? 6 hours in an airport...........hell man, go and buy a pr0n magazine?

I have a cheap "portable desktop" AND a netbook.............maybe that is the way to go..........or with one of these "fondleslabs" ?

My "laptop" will do about 90 minutes.......... the netbook around 4 hours........a fondleslab COULD give you 6-8............. I guess it boils down to what you want to use it for?

How is the FX4100 BTW?

Cheers,

Johnno,
