"3 cell battery and proprietary slot is a NO GO for me"
Pros: I am going to buy a NetBook but I have been waiting for more mfrs to get in the game with more options. So far my best pick is the Dell 12" (avail. November) if it has both an LED backlight AND a larger battery.
Cons: A battery life of 2:44 Hrs is not much better that a full fledged Notebook at a similar price. I realize that these are lighter but isn't the whole idea of using the Atom processor for a longer battery life?
Summary: When and if they correct these two issues I might buy an HP but Dell is coming out of the gate with a 12" with full size keyboard. the unknow to me about it is whether it will have an LED backlight and a battery life of at least 6 hrs.

"I am going to buy a NetBook" ??? And you are posting a USER review??? Let me clarify for you... A USER review is supposed to come from someone who USES the product, not an amature evaluation of the product specs. Come one, you're wasting everybody's time... or you are with one of the competitors.

So you have not used this system and yet you're reviewing it?
Are you a Dell rep by any chance? -
Dude, the Mini 12 apparently doesn't have any better battery life, at least with the standard 3-cell. Sure, there's going to be a 6-cell battery available, but there's going to be a 6-cell available for the HP as well.
