And your CEO's and VP's demand battery performance from flash sites? You are the one that has said you have seen no difference. Systems resources are directly related to battery performance and the flash player utilizes a lot of system resources.

Why did you pay what you paid for a netbook when I assume you have a laptop and/or desktop? Or are you the only person in IT who works solely from a netbook? Perhaps you wanted other features? You have a droid and a iPhone, why is it a stretch to have an iPad with an iPhone? Lots of people do.

And you're refuting him with nothing more then anecdotal evidence.

Here you go, I googled your battery and found a test. Who's embarrassed now? Wow, less then 9 hours, who would have though?

And that battery costs $180.00, more then a third the price of a iPad for more then 25% less performance based on actual tests (all tests I have seen have been well over the claimed 10)

What separate device would you need? A computer? You already said you have one of those.

First off, common sense. It's pretty hard to deal with hover overs when hover overs are impossible on a touch screen. But if you don't believe me, here's a professionals comments.

Thanks for the tip on Google! This is the first I have heard of it but it's preventing me a lot of embarrassment!!
