    Anyone know what the weight of this is? I hate how the Lenovo web page doesn't list the weight on the summary screen :p

    Does the 9 cell battery stick out the back like the 6-7 cell battery on the T61 w/ the 14" screen?

    How long does the battery last w/ the 6 vs. 9 cell w/ the 140M graphics chip?

    The only question I can answer is that the 9 cell does stick out in the back. I do not know if the T61's 9 cell is the same as the 9 cell for the T60, but I have seen pictures around here that show that it does stick out.

    EDIT: If you go to Lenovo's website under the T61 there should be a link to a PDF listing all the specs, including weight.
    EDIT#2: According to the Data sheet there is no 9 cell for the T61 14.1". There is a 7 cell that brings the weight to 5.36lbs, and a 6 cell that comes to 5.23lbs.

    The PDF listing on the site only lists weights for the 14.1" model :p
    I'm specifically wondering about the 15.4" WSXGA+ model (need the extra screen real estate for programming because VS.Net and Eclipse are too cramped on smaller screens)-:
