Hey guys,
Can someone give me the rough times on the battery life of the 12" iBook and the 12" PowerBook?
Thanks,
Jason

iBook G4 with 14.1-inch display: 61-watt-hour lithium-ion battery provides up to 6 hours of battery life on a single charge (1)
50-watt-hour lithium-ion battery (with integrated charge indicator LEDs) providing up to 5 hours of battery life (12-inch models) (8)
50-watt-hour lithium-ion battery (with integrated charge indicator LEDs) providing up to 4.5 hours of battery life (15-inch models) (8)
58-watt-hour lithium-ion battery (with integrated charge indicator LEDs) providing up to 4.5 hours of battery life (17-inch model) (8)

I am not sure, but maybe the graphics card could have something to do with it. Is it comparable to flogging a 2 litre suzuki (14") and idleling a 12 litre v8(17")? Probably not. Anyway.
