Now have taken the stance of " who cares" if you can't find an outlet blah blah blah.
Where'd you pull that out of?
The one guy just above who said "who cares" is apparently an LCD user. Obviously long battery life isn't important to him.

As far as I know, battery life is still important to many of us. I hate how often I have to charge my cell phone. It's just that once we were are settled and satisfied with legitimate multi-week-life we see we get, we take the hyper-extended multi-month marketing claims with the huge, painful grain of salt they deserved.

I was actually about to post that I was pretty sure I had charged my Kindle just about a week ago, and was rather ticked to get a low battery warning when I was out in the field yesterday. Not sure why the life was so short, but it bugged me.
