Turning off wireless reduces battery usage? LOL, ok I'll be sure to turn it off. I just want to bring it to the airport to watch movies to kill time. Nothing else to do, and my little shitty iPod can't hold more than 1 movie. |

| Why not use your laptop just to transfer the movies? I doubt it will stay on that long whilst playing films. |

You have a point. I made the brightness to the lowest it can go, I'll see how long it lasts from 100%. How long should it last approximately? This laptop is only 2 weeks old. |
