    Ive read the review on the Lenovo T400 and the battery life is awesome.

    How come the mini reviews on the Sony SR has the battery life at almost SZ levels, about 4 hours?
    I mean the SR has the new montivina chip and LED screen same as the T400but the battery life is much less, what gives?

    i dont own a SR, but I think with dedicated card its about 4 hours and integrated graphics about 6 hours on a SR with a 6 cell battery.. which is quite similar to the lenovo T400... Am I wrong ??

    exactly ... thats what I said.. their is nothing exceptional about lenovo T400.. infact the 6 cell battery itself sticks out of the notebook... which is not the case of sony SR.
