you know a lot of people hate the 6 cell because it does stick out, I really like that it does, it tilts the keyboard at an easier to use angle I think, and it also raises the mini up to let it cool better....just my 0.02..

Plus I get about 7 1/2 hours out of it too.

"oh my gosh be golly I be seeing that your warranty has come to an end..I will be glad to transfer you to our Sales Department where there be someone who will be assisting you today on this matter most quickly"

can you suggest a supplier for battery for mini 10v?

there is a couple sellers on ebay that sell both 3 and 6 cell batteries. I am looking at getting a 6 cell for mine because my 3 cell kinda sucks

[rrfranczak3]

just remember there never has been any complaints of a battery lasting too long...............

There's one thing that kills the 6 cell for me: It tilts the screen and moves the optimal viewpoint down. It's already too low for me. That's a serious shortcoming of the 10v: the screen doesn't open far enough.
