My Vaio ultra light laptop gives me 6.5hrs battery life today! Not sure what planet M$ is on or their partners. Having said that PPC/WM5 devices are pretty poor on battery life so it should be no surprise that the trend continues with the UMPC. The BBC reported a global survey on what people want from their cellphones - the main feature was battery life! Personal portable devices need to have a rock solid OS (not WM5!), instant on and a good battery life.
