Hi I am considering buying a Braille Note M power, so could some one please explain the issue with the battery? What I am wondering is - does the battery lose it's charge very quickly, or does the battery last a very long time?

Since the old units got about 21 hours how much do the new ones get? Having asked that question remember the hardware is different a more powerful processor for example. Also how much to you get on the new machines total? Even if it were 10 try and find a laptop that will run that long. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jean Menzies Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2005 11:40 AM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] still a battery concern with the mPower It says the battery gauge is accurate, but I also did a recalibration just to know it was done. Hey, having nothing to compare it to, I'm not complaining about the battery. But if you guys say it's not as good as older models, then you have something to base a comparison on.
