    Everyone seems to be discussing the T400, but not the T500. I've read several threads and a million of posts saying, that the T400 can NO WHERE last as long, as in Kevin's review. They get 3-4 hours tops with integrated graphics. Is it the same deal with T500? except, the T500 should do a couple of hours less, meaning it won't really last long with the integrated graphics.
    Can anyone post som battery tests, please :eek:)
    Also, while you're at it. Do you like the screen, or do you regret not going for a laptop with LED (say, the T400).

    Thanks in advance!

    With the 6 cell (discrete graphics) I found something around 3 hours. This was not a scientific test however.
