I will be making sure it is not the same make as the previous 2 also.

I'm just lucky it is 70% desk-bound, as I doubt I could rely on it on the road like I used to the PBook one apon a time..
Jesus Christ, you must drain you battery and charge it up again every single day. Doing this will kill it fastest in my experience.
