Oh no! I went to BJ's the other day, and saw that they sold a battery charger with four AA rechargeable batteries and four AAA rechargeables and a separate pack of eight AA rechargeables for about $25 total.
I think that rechargeables last ten years.
The thing about the jetBook Lite is that in order to get the MSRP down low, they are selling it without items you need. So you spend $149 for the device, $25 for the batteries and charger, maybe $15 for the SD card, and maybe $40 for the pouch or cover. That totals $230, which is in the ballpark but no less than what other 5" devices cost.
