Great review... thanks :) Battery: http://www.clove.co.uk/viewProduct.aspx?category=36AD5E0B-23D3-442E-B59B-3804500ACBDA&product=4A22DEF2-F173-4680-8604-E19E1AF89E1D If the link doesn't work go to www.clove.co.uk and follow Homepage <http://www.clove.co.uk/index.aspx> PDA Accessories <http://www.clove.co.uk/category.aspx?category=6930BE89-5232-4F7E-8063-59310F4EE276> ASUS <http://www.clove.co.uk/category.aspx?category=F9B25BBB-6BBF-483B-A47A-7C641A10CA11> ASUS EEE PC <http://www.clove.co.uk/category.aspx?category=36AD5E0B-23D3-442E-B59B-3804500ACBDA> £47 inc VAT (pre-order so doesn't look like they have stock yet). Great price for a battery :) This is the 5500mA battery - I don't know what ships as standard. Doesn't look like they do a separate charger (yet) so you'd have to charge it in the machine at home. They do an AC adaptor though so that should work well. There's a nice leather case to protect it for example which looks useful and some other bits and pieces. What actually comes with it, aside from the laptop itself?
