I nearly ordered the 4 cell battery, but decided that I’d see how the 2 cell performed, and if it was adequate. If I need more I can always buy either another 2 cell or a 4 cell. That's the beauty of replaceable batteries.

This is a 32 bit Atom processor; the 32 bit OS can only access 3 GB. I’m not sure if the Clovertrail chip can address more than 2 GB, but all of the Clovertrail tabs that I’ve researched max out there. Some of the i5 Core based systems have 4 GB and 64 bit OS, but typically run $300 to $400 more and I haven’t seen any shipping yet.
