I bought this from COTD for $429 the last time it was on offer (maybe 2 months ago), and find even the 6 cell battery to be quite limited. I don't think this sacrifice would be worth the $50….
6 cell on load gives you about 4-5 hours. 9.5 hours is when settings are on their very lowest and on idle. that said, a 3 cell would probably give you around 2 hours on load
Not all 6 cell's are equal… http://apcmag.com/asus-eee-pc-1000he-the-nine-hour-netbook.h…
MSI wind 5200mAh, Asus Eee PC 1000HE 8700mAh
Generally 3 cells is good for 2 hours on most net books doing almost nothing maybe 1 hour doing something movies /web etc
I guess its how much you want your nice stylish netbook to look ugly with a big extra battery sticking out , dont forget it makes it heavier aswell
also no bluetooth.. cotd today really rock
This is not a bargain. Better specced MSI Wind U100+ available for $459 in store (Melbourne CBD) or $478 delivered to any capital city @ TECS.

MSI Wind Netbook U100+ (N280 processor, 6 cell, Wireless N, Bluetooth) - $459
NEW MSI Wind U123 (N280 processor, 6 cell, Wireless N, Bluetooth) - $489
(Pick up price or + $19 delivery to capital cities)
the 3 cell battery as compared to COTD's 1000HE 6 cell (up to 9.5 hrs) battery is enough to negative this deal.
