The new U110 ECO just came out. A 9-cell battery that provides 15+ hours of battery life. I didn't believe it when I read the first review, but after doing some research and talking to users...the 15+ hours of life is legit. Good post though. Love the details and the realistic pictures :) Update this post. The new U110 ECO just came out. A 9-cell battery that provides 15+ hours of battery life.

It needed to have the Atom and MS OS (which is standard these days), but this model has 3 USB inputs, a VGA out, and perhaps more importantly-- one of the last models upgradable to 2GB of memory. I went with the 10" screen because the platform was the same size either way. Battery life was not adequate, so I spent $100 (shipped) on the 9-cell battery. Got the battery from ebuybatteries, aka ETECH. No issues with the product and it arrived promptly. I'd buy from them again. The netbook is great for what it is. I like to watch streaming videos in bed, or Google things as I'm watching the tube. It's good for that. No problems with the keyboard or pad. (You learn to use the up/down arrows on the keyboard.) With a wireless mouse, the unit is more user friendly. The wireless range is great, btw. I feel I made a smart purchase. After doing some research, I settled on the MSI Wind U100-641US.

It lasts much longer. I also noticed that the 6 cell battery also sticks out at the bottom like the one shown in the picture. It is heavier and bulkier, but still I think it's worth it for the extra battery life. Just to update, I ended up exchanging the MSI Wind 3 cell for a 6 cell battery one. It lasts much longer.

It's a nice little computer but the battery was only a 3 cell. I would love to get the 9 cell battery and I don't really mind the extra half a pound as it is probably minimal for the difference in battery life. The price is a little high though as it is almost what I paid for the actual netbook. I got the MSI wind 1G with the 3 cell battery for $299 so the battery seems pretty expensive. How much is the 6 cell battery? Hopefully the battery prices will come down soon. Just picked up an MSI wind last weekend. It’s a nice little computer but the battery was only a 3 cell.

The tilt is another story entirely. Netbook manufacturers, look at IBM's old X-series!
