    Just ordered M860TU with Eurocom :D

    P9500 & 9800M GT

    Will i need a spare Batt? Do you guys got a spare batt or is it wise to invest the extra buck in something else?

    Basically i do have mains near me, however if it has a short running time may be it does make sense getting another one.

    Can i charge it by itself - just plug the adapter in?

    Thanks

    I have never heard of being able to charge a laptop battery by itself, it always needs to be in the laptop. I think it's always good to have an extra battery though, maybe you should wait a month or so to see if you'd actually use it...

    Depends on your needs. Personally, I though of getting one at first but finally, I though I didn't really need one. I rarely have to use my laptop more than 2 hours in a row, or even then, I can workout with my N82 and a bluetooth keyboard.
