Ok figure I lose 20 % capacity per year as stated above.

Start with 20 hours of use per charge.
So after a year I'm down to 16 hours.
After 2 I'm down to 12 hours and it might be time to change batterys.

A link was posted a LONG time ago which gave the part # to go to battery's plus. To order the exact replacement battery, new battery was aprox 30$.

Pretty easy to spend that much for 8 rechargeable battery's and charger. Will they still be running after 2 years?

Now I know I'm not hardware savvy enough to figure which is the best way out of this.
But I also know a couple of the guys here on the Jetbook forums are on top of it.

FYI specs say the JBL is some 2 oz's heavier than the Jetbook with internal L-Ion.
