Yeah - Just saw that. Not bad. I guess one could get the 6 cell and a 12 cell and swap them out depending on the situation.

I wasn't concerned with the performance in the review as much as I was about the size of the battery. I am concerned that the 12 cell with add too much bulk. Thanks for the info

Is the new 3790 based on the same case design as the 3760? If so, there may be some issues. The 12 cell battery sticks out which makes the notebook an extra inch thicker in the back. This is supposedly the reason all the ports are on...

Sorry to raise such a ruckuss over "optical battery". I think you folks knew what I meant. UNGAS - What defects have you heard of?

The 3790 can be configured with a 12 cell battery

That should very acheivable

Hmmm - I think that is a pretty agressive estimate for battery life. With the high screen resolution and the 9700 128mb you will more likely get 4.5 - 6 hours of life with the 12cell. Still quite good considering the capabilities of...

I would bet the height discrepancy is due to the little feet this notebook has. Some measurements are the case measurement and some are probably actuall height from resting surface to the top of case. I believe the feet are .25 inches...

It's out! You can find this as the Sager 3690. PCtorque has this on their configuration page. Pricing is pretty resonable.

Benito - I have struggled with the same question. I started with the Mitac but the battery life(lack of optical battery) didn't provide what I needed. Than I thought about the M6BNE. I love that notebook! It has great battery...
