    Half that of the 6-cell.

    :-D

    The data hasn't really got out yet. Acer claims 2.5 or 3h (max) depending on whos talking. At this point assume you'll get more than 2h, but less than 3h, as a light use average.

    I just got mine today, and it seems to have a good 2.5 hours on it. Also the 120GB HDD model.
