I've got similar usage patterns and can add another data point.

I don't watch video, but I can usually manage 4+ hours working w/
Eclipse, Geany, and a browser with WLAN.  That's on a 6-cell battery --
5-6+ hours is do-able on the 9-cell, provided I'm not doing a lot of
compilation, etc.  I've got an SSD though, so it might be a little hard
to hit that with a traditional drive.
