I'm infuriated that the battery is not removable. It may be the best battery in the known universe, but the idea that I would have to lose my computer for a day or so just to get the battery replaced, to me, is unacceptable. There's no reason they couldn't put those same cells in the same case with a removable form factor. None.

Considering one of the only things that ever failed me on my BlackBook (which Michael now owns) is the battery, the idea of not being able to do that "repair" myself makes me cringe.
