As for the 8000 page turns comment, how many people here have a laptop or netbook? How many of these people have actually gotten the battery to last as long as the companies claim. Same goes for cameras. Battery claims are for the best conditions thus you rarely get the claim.

I managed to exceed the suggested maximum battery life on a Toshiba laptop by turning it on and then leaving it alone until the battery discharged, switch to AC message popped up -- actually took 90 minutes longer than rated. Not exactly very useful but no one said I was going to be able to use the laptop and achieve that battery life. On the truth in advertising side, the other battery life number for actual use was only 15-20% higher than what I saw in my use. Close enough for government work and advertising claims.
