Re: Growing Pains cnet tested YOUR "6hr battery" laptop in the Dell 700m
and said:
Battery life of Dell Inspiron 700m
Unlike its excellent mobile performance, the Dell Inspiron 700m's battery life leaves much to be desired, particularly for a system designed with mobility in mind. In our tests, the Inspiron 700m lasted about two and a half hours--46 percent less than the Gateway M275XL and 57 percent less than the HP Compaq nc6000. The Inspiron 700m's lackluster performance is due to its meager 14.8V, 2,200mAh (33WHr) battery
====================================
I dumped the 700m and use an iBook G4 a lot better battery life than any dell also |

Well I am using the Dell 700m right now.
It says 56% left, 3:22 Hours left.
That review is wrong, it definately lasts longer than 6 hours. 2 years ago it lasted almost 8 hours.
You loose.
The battery that I am using is still original, I bought this laptop for $950 two years ago.
