    What are other owners of the Akoya LS getting as typical battery life? I have the extended battery that extends beyond the base of the laptop and was wondering how the smaller battery compares and also, how many people have each size battery? I might want to get another battery and would like to know the typical capacity so I know if a new battery would be beneficial. I have yet to find a place to buy one, however.

    Right now, I have the larger battery (if a smaller one even exists...) and I get just under 4 hours (best guess from running down multiple times) to dead battery, but I usually don't like to lower the capacity under 20% if possible...even higher is better.
