Reviews say 2 hour battery life. The price is nice but an ultra-portable with low battery life makes little sense unless you move between offices a lot, but spend most of your time at a desk.
Two hour battery life would be the deal-breaker. I nabbed a Dell Inspiron 11 over the holidays (comparable unit) and I get 8+ hours of battery life out of one charge. That's not as good as a tablet/keyboard hybrid/combo in some cases, but it is quite a useful machine. I've grown somewhat accustomed to using the touch screen along with the keyboard. I do wish the screen folded over backward to create a slate machine. However, it's a nice all around laptop with touch screen. I've seen it for under $200 in the Outlet for those interested. Wait for a coupon as the upcoming holidays are sure to warrant them.

It's damned close. I thin I might eke out 10 hours on my T100 and maybe 8 on the Toshiba Encore. The T100 is ~$350 for the 64GB version. The Encore is ~$200 for the 32GB version but has not physical keyboard included. All in all, I think you got the better deal.

Thank you!
