Did anyone work out how to use the internet with the Android OS?
Working fine with Windows 7 but cannot connect using Android?
Also, upgrading the RAM will leave you with the 1GB it came with as surplus to requirements - anyone sold theirs on ebay? What sort of price did you get for it?"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the

Who told you that?
I have a laptop over 3 years (Dell) and still use original battery and never take battery out sure if you keep taking it out you will wear the connections
Have a read, this article suggests that laptops that are always on mains should have their batts removed: http://mobileoffice.about.com/od/usingyourlaptop/f/laptopbattery.htmWhen using a laptop as a desktop replacement the battery should not be left in for long periods of time. The laptop will over time discharge the battery. Remove the battery – making sure that it is charged to 40% and store it in a dry, warm place. Ensure that it is wrapped protectively and nothing will be dropped on it.0 -
