    Does anybody have a definitive answer on the battery life of this model? I was reading that the multi-touch gets very poor battery life when compared to the regular tablet. Any owners want to share their real-life battery run times?

    I'm hoping to buy one before the coupon runs out. (EPP-28%)

    Would I be able to even get close to 8 hours, or is that wishful thinking?

    Thanks in advance.

    I think it's wishful thinking to get 8 hrs with just the 8 cell battery. I've gotten 6 hrs in max battery life mode and battery stretch on. these were also on XP. Vista/W7 might do better. That being said I'd still get the X200t with the multitouch.
