Did you install the bluetooth driver/software? The ThinkVantage button doesn't work because you installed XP over the original German version of XP. Two hours seems about right. You can try dimming the screen more and running in low power mode to eke out some more battery life. They do make a six-cell battery or a three-cell modular battery, which can replace the optical drive, if you want to get more battery life.

Yes. If there is, it is beyond my ability.

Here is the modular battery for the X300. I have no idea where to get the battery in Greece.
