I agree. User-replaceable Li-Ion or Li-Poly battery packs have been around for quite some time (in mobile phones and digital cameras) so having a non-replaceable battery is quite a letdown. I know that making them non-replaceable also makes the device cheaper, but nevertheless...
Are there actually more expensive devices, like the Sonys, which have replaceable batteries?
