Just a quick one - Will the X60s fit onto Ultrabase with ...

#1 Post by CyberDude » Thu Jul 20, 2006 7:55 am

8 cell battery?

I read that the 8 Cell sticks out and was wondering if this would prevent the X60s from docking to the X6 Ultrabase.

That is a REALLY good question... I have never considered that before. My system came with 8 cell battery AND ultrabase, so I just assumed it would fit... hmm... anyone know?!?

Errrrr, are you having me on? If you have the Ultrabase and 8 cell haven't you tried docking the X60s yet or have you not received it yet?

Sorry not trying to be sarcastic.

Okay, I emailed a guy from another forum who has the x60s and he replied:

"It does [fit]. The ultrabase is actually the size of the x60s+8cell."

X60s w/ 8-cell battery fits into the Ultrabase fine. No worries.
