    Ok, first I just want to say this is the most informative resource ever. You guys made my research into my first laptop much easier. Thanks!

    My F3jm is on the truck today, called off work to make sure I didn't miss it. :D
    Obviously, I'm a little impatient. So I got 2 questions.

    1. I see there's a 9-cell battery available. Is it worth it to buy one? Better yet, is there anyplace that sells them? I can't seem to find any Asus battery resellers that list one for the F3Jm. Also I couldn't tell, I don't know what to look for, but does this machine have that optical bay slot for an extra battery or not?

    2. I'm also looking for a car charger. Same deal as 1. I can't seem to find one listed for this model. I'm assuming there's one out there that works for other models including this one, it's probably just not listed.

    Thanks again!

    I use a generic 65W inverter for charging my Z33 in the car. That way I can use it to charge other things as well.
