you get 2h20m off of 27wh? 90 minutes would seem doable- but 140? thats a while. are you talking with brightness down, no cpu demanding tasks, no wireless?

Having said that, anyone got any good battery reconditioning tips for these batteries? I know a few things that work with batteries for other appliances, but they are a fair bit simpler battery packs and does not have microprocessors and such sorcery.

CPU is at 780 mV / 598MHz most of the time, I run Thunderbird, Firefox, Gaim and a few instances of Putty, Wireless is on and brightness is set to four.
