Is that why you bought the iPad? For long battery life?
People want the best of both worlds, that's why they sometimes want a keyboard with a touch screen tablet. And yes, part of the reason I bought an iPad was for the long battery life. A dozen trans-pac round trips a year tells me I need a long battery. It hasn't failed me yet, whereas my laptop battery never makes it past 3 1/2 hours.
