I believe he tethering internet connection from his phone using Bluetooth. It will eat battery life faster but since UL series has almost 10 hours battery life, it's not so much as a problem. Probably the phone battery will run out first.

Alamak, with wireless device (bluetooth) turned on, the battery falling quite fast... THis is gonna be a bad test...

Of course the phone battery runs out quick... I charge it continuesly... I gonna get my USB cable back from my sister... THe laptop battery drop quick too, since it also running bluetooth... DUH

Let see... I started the battery test on 11:20 (the battery only charged to 98%), now is 12:12, battery now left 87%... Don't think it gonna make it over 10 hours if continuesly using bluetooth... CRAP~ I gonna phone my sister to get my USB back tomorrow.

Phuuu...how many hours past?Batt stats?

Despite the core clock now is much lower, the voltage still stays on 0.88v... SO the temperature still the same... Hmm... SO maybe in logic, we could just leave the laptop overclocked...

Then the batt life is only 7.5+ hours at max?

Not sure, wireless stuff usually eat more battery. If you just doing office work (not play the Facebook of course), it might last longer. Still testing, and DC (disconnect) frequently -_______-

Guess I just continue my Photoshop work

Hahahaha UL80VT uses 8 cell battery, I heard it also tweaked by Asus so the total power stored is higher than usual. Yes, 8 cell. And the battery span from the left to the right side if the laptop, very long.

If you try to hold a smaller Ul like UL30 and UL20, the battery probably even heavier than the laptop alone!

thx alot m1x for the info seems like we getting the taiwan version...i wont say crap on the webcam but why asus had to cheapskate on this is really...

Because the LCD really toooooooo damn thin, less than 0.2 inch... Maybe?

... battery report ... 3 hours 18 minutes usage : 38% ...

ah well, but it helps to save on bandwidth when doing video conference...

using a 1.3MP webcam now, but it's still laggy over here in Australia whenever i connect to Singapore or Hong Kong...

Hmm, maybe Asus think that not everyone got fast network, so it a waist to put in a big MP cam anyway... Local network still ... wordless ... T_T

2gb only? I thought ships with 4gb?

Eh, now I can get UL50vt same price as UL80vt..should I get UL50v instead??
It has 500gb hdd..That's the only thing I see..

Yes they only ship 2GB here, on the website says 4Gb -__-

I heard astria says ULxxV do not have bluetooth? WHile ULxxVT have...?
