[ltp] Anyone using Ubuntu 8.10 on X60s / X61s? (battery life)

[Ari El]

Just wondering about the new ubuntu battery life / power consumption. 

How many hours can be expected on an extended battery? Is power consumption
anything near XP's 7.5W when note-taking at low brightness levels and
wireless off?

(from my own experience, previous ubuntu's were a shame in this regard - 10W
average a the lowest brightness, 4 hours of battery (vs. 9h on xp))
