IT IS A PERFECT CONVERGENCE IN TECHNOLOGY...it is priced perfectly and it has many enhancements... like wireless keyboard, blutooth headset, flash etc. The battery life is awesome... just recharge it and forget for atleast three days if you are going to talk only.. but if you are going to use it heavly like photography, recording then the battery comes atleast for 2 days....
