    So I've scrubbed through a lot of these threads and I haven't actually seen one (probably missed it) on how long the battery on the GS1 last? Can I watch a full DVD?)


    *edit* Yep sorry, the G1s.

    Did you meant the Asus G1S?

    The G1S gets 2h 30min to 3h of batterylife. So yes it will last an entire movie.

    In high performance, max brightness, just browsing, listening to music, watching videos, etc my G1S is getting almost exactly 2 hours of life. On battery saver mode and about 30% brightness I'm getting around 2:40. I haven't tested it out with wireless off but I'm betting that if you went all out to squeek every last bit of life out of it you'd hit 3 hours.
