    I have the 6 cell and just tested my battery life. Surfing the net, streaming video, running Adobe Creative Suite, did a little bit of everything. I got an amazing 6h30m out of it.

    I just reinstalled my One.
    I have the 8 GB SSD model with Acer original 5200 mAh 6-cell.

    With new Ubuntu 8.10 install + sickboy's kernel and the tweaks from ubuntu community I get about 6 hours on light school use (meaming dimmest screen continuosly on, wifi on, terminal and firefox + maybe something else). Had to flash the old 3114 BIOS to get the most dimmest screen brightnesses that were disabled on my model with the newest BIOSes.

    I have to say I'm very happy with this little machine now :)
