Sony have finally managed to deliver my new battery. Only a week late and missing YAPC but hey, it's here. For some reason the power management utility on my linux install seems to think I have 7 days of power in it, even though it has gone from 100% to 87% in the last 20 mins. Even I can do the maths that works out it will actually last about 2.5 hours.
Still, that's much better than it was when I bought it second hand just before yapc::2001, when it could manage about 45 minutes on a full charge. Perhaps the iBook can wait a while...
