Its freaking awesome. I've used this thing constantly on for pulse reader and a little bit of games, market. Its
been around for 35 Minutes and it only consumed 3%. This thing is great.

Engadget said 8 hours 20 minutes of constant video. 1130 hour less than iPad with a faster cpu. Also, please search. There are a few battery posts.

Battery life is very good. Don't let that be whats holding you up. It's almost as good as the Ipad's.
