    the 6 cell battery life is not enough for me, so I need to get 9 cell.
    but what I worry about is the weight..
    can someone know the actual weight?

    thx.

    I don't happen to have one but just half the weight of the six cell and add it on to the existing weight and that will be pretty close to the answer

    I don't know the actual weight, but I use the 9-cell, and I carry it around with me sometimes to the library/in my backpack/hold it with one hand while transporting. It's not that bad. Good grip. =)
