This is a joke…right? 2.5 hour battery, 2 USB ports, and a 10″ for $500?! No way, Jose. Anyone who spends more than 15 minutes researching Netbooks will not buy this Sony model.
I know, I’m a little disappointed by the low battery life as well.
Sony first makes a netbook and doesn’t want people to call it a netbook so they can sell it for more.
Then they finally give in and release a netbook but haven’t realized that it’s been well over a year since netbooks have had a battery life as low as that!
