David Allen — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 15:00:45 +0000

Finally HP have come up with a 6 Cell Battery for the Mini 1000, but some people are going to be slight fed up with it as it carries a price tag of $153.90, which by anyone’s standards is quite steep when you consider that the starting price of the original laptop is around $350. However, these batteries are expensive no matter where you go or which brand of laptop you are buying. The problem for buyers of these netbooks is that they are sold as being portable and therefore a battery with some power behind it in order for the user to make use of its portability.
