Quillz 1,011 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shihchiun 2 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). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

episode 629 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

d3bruts1d 0 Posted January 6, 2009 I'd gladly take a removeable battery with less life that offered more charges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quillz 1,011 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
episode 629 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
