This trade off was required to keep the price tag similar to the 4cell version. Looks like Samsung doesn't wanna breach the $500 mark even with delivery charges. It looks smooth but seems to be the fasionable performance-competitor for N110 with the new spruced up battery. Good work overall !!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bobby]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 6:27AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
