I don't know ... if they put it out there with no qualification, then I think they intended us to assume that it meant what we basically assumed that it did mean.

Maybe it comes down to their B2B focus -- as others have commented, 10 hours is fine for most business applications -- especially compared to laptop/tablet battery life.

In any case, it's another indication that the iLiad and the Sony Reader aren't really directly competing products, they're simply aimed at different targets.


On another note, CommanderROR, I think you have generally conducted yourself in an extremely civil manner, even when you've been well and truly torqued. Sure you've expressed ... discontent on occasion, but you haven't actually gotten nasty about it that I've seen. For that I commend you.
