I am not convinced that 7-8 hrs under light load is enough, but its better than 5-6 hrs. If they would just swap the 1300 mAh battery for a 2000 mAh unit this would become ~12 hrs which is much more acceptable (particularly when save to RAM is added). If they had started with a 2000 mAh battery, the 30% firmware bug would have been much less painful too.
