Dane Share Posted January 6, 2009 Damn, looks like I'll just be saving up for awhile for a new macbook instead of a mini :-(. Link to post Share on other sites
Quillz Share Posted January 6, 2009 lol one last thing 17" macbook pro ... there goes all these netbook rumors or tablet or ipod touch rumors. or mini for that matter haha And this is why, time and time again, people need to stop expecting Apple to announce the world at Macworld. Rumors are just that... Rumors. What was the point of a netbook, or an iPhone nano or anything like that? Link to post Share on other sites

shihchiun Share Posted January 6, 2009 It's supposed to last 8 hours and be good for 1000 charges - dunno if it's silver-nitrate or removable (but probably not). Link to post Share on other sites
TruckWEB Share Posted January 6, 2009 "We've designed a battery that will last 8 hours on a charge, and can be charged 1000 times..." "The key to building a longer battery is making it bigger... the challenge is where to find the space to put it... in a removable battery there's a lot of wasted space." Only 1000 times.....

BajiRav Share Posted January 6, 2009 The key to building a longer battery is making it bigger I felt dumb after reading that :hmmm: Link to post Share on other sites
episode Share Posted January 6, 2009 So 1000 charges and non-removable. Charge it once a day, 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year. Wonder what that will cost to replace in four years. Link to post Share on other sites

d3bruts1d Share Posted January 6, 2009 I'd gladly take a removeable battery with less life that offered more charges. Link to post Share on other sites

"The key to building a longer battery is making it bigger... the challenge is where to find the space to put it... in a removable battery there's a lot of wasted space."Only 1000 times..... most notebook batteries are dead by 300-400 charges (not dead but they last less than 1.5hrs) Link to post Share on other sites
Quillz Share Posted January 6, 2009 Of course, the only problem with all this is... How often does one go 8+ hours on their notebook without having it plugged into an AC adapter? As I've said before, this is great, but all it really does is let Apple now charge you another $99+ for a battery replacement program. Link to post Share on other sites
episode Share Posted January 6, 2009 Only 1000 times..... Thats what all rechargeable batteries are rated. ~1000 charges. But the non-removable aspect of this one is what hurts it. Link to post Share on other sites
