Yeah, that's exactly what I'm wondering, because I heard of people getting close to 5 hrs. with the 12" pbs. I just haven't heard anything regarding the battery life on the 15". That should be a lot better also.

Actually the new ones are probably the same...their batteries have more capacity but their processor speed has increased...as for my "lowly" 1.25GHz 15" I can get about 2-3 hours using AirPort with the screen turned down...or something like 3-4 hours while on dialup (again with the screen turned down) and in the neighborhood of 4+ if I'm not really doing anything but maybe some PHP/XHTML coding or something (of course that's if I'm not switching between dreamweaver and safari the whole time, which happens a lot with PHP :))...
