    I'm looking for a reasonably priced notepad and the 1682WLMi is available for around £600 here in the UK. I guess it is being superseded by newer models but still seems a good spec machine for the money. As it's been around for a while does anyone have any opinions of this machine, good or bad? I hear battery life is one of its minus points.

    Regards,
    Neil

    When the 1680 was first introduced it came only 4 celled battery which limited battery life around 2 hours , But now 1680 series comes with 8 celled battery and give u around 4.5 hours

    The newer model 1690 come with new chipset 915 and diff graphics processors besides that both are basically same
