I was wondering how much time I would get with the battery and how heavy the laptop would be.

EDIT:

How long do you guys think it wold take for it to arrive. I live in Vancouver, and they said they have to make it in China.

 

this would all be found on the review xD

way over 8 hours i think on integrated, check it out

as far as shipping goes, i have no idea =p
since you customized it off the site, way over a week the least

 

Do you guys think it would be hard to carry this to school and back everyday?

 

Well, the 9 cell adds some considerable weight, so just keep that in mind.
Also depends on how many books you'll be carrying as well

 

Well I have to carry chem, bio and physics books !

 

wow, im guessing have your classes back to back o.o

to help you could always invest in a really good backpack from companies like swiss gear and high sierra

 

I don't think it would be hard but a T400s or an X series machine would be a lot lighter.

 

It's really light and compact. Reading all these posts here day in and day out, one would think that notebooks in the 14/15 inch category are heavy bricks. There are *far* heavier things people carry!

As for shipping, I noticed that you ordered the 160GB HD, for which there should be no real delay. I ordered one in August with the 320 GB for which there was supposed to be a more than 4 week delay, but it shipped in a week.

 

Ya they said my order has shipped but for some reason I cant track my order, my order number is more than 6 digits when it can only be 6 lol.

They also said they will ship by ground, I dont get how thats possible from china to Vancouver.

One more question, how much more power/battery does the T series processor use?

 

It shouldnt use that much more, provided you do some undervolting.

 

ya I was thinking that I could somehow limit howmuch power the processor uses but dont know how to do that. Would using a bluetooth mouse decrease the battery life significantly compared to a wireless USB mouse?
