Battery life depends largely on the CPU you choose... For mine, the best battery time is 3.5-4 hours...
I believe the i7-2630QM should be able to reach 4.5-5 hours hmm.gif
But the battery is integrated though, meaning that it probably won't last too long doh.gif

AFAIK, extending warranty (one year) take about RM650..(from what I asked the Techinical Support)

my hinge just replaced last 30 min ago. the techie came to my house and repair it.
very fast response I would say.

but now my 'right 'button key is now quite unresponsive.(almost unusable!) doh.gif
now Im wondering if this new hinge rosak again, will they replace it again for free?..

overall, Im satisfied with their service. rclxms.gif
