The Lenovo site shows 4 hours max with the 4 cell battery. It doesn't say if you can get a larger battery but I suspect it would spoil the lines of the notebook anyway.

Yeah, four hours of battery life isn't very impressive - I'm surprised Lenovo could only fit a 4 cell battery in there. The 12.5" screen gives it more width than a similar laptop with a 12" screen, so I would have hoped they could have crammed more battery cells in there. :(

Eeek, it looks like an internal non-replaceable battery.

Yes, correct. That personally doesn't bother me too much - when I travel I never carry a spare battery anyway.

Macbook Air anyone?

One week in and I still love it. I was putting my music library into iTunes under OSX earlier this week (iTunes under Windows is a piece of !@#$) and doing some surfing, email and note-taking and after a full day at work and another couple of hours at home I still had almost 30% battery left. It certainly wasn't on all day at work but was for a good 4 hours at least.
