Unfortunately, they use Lithium Polymer batteries with a very small number of recharge cycles, something like half the already pathetic Li-Ion norm, so budget for some spare batteries !

In the US, HP service is very very good.  I don't know what it is about European divisions of computer companies.  A dozen or so years I was outfitting an English university with a technical word processing setup.  I knew that the software I'd chosen worked very well with Toshiba printers, but I wasn't able to find anyone who sold them.  I called Toshiba UK to get the name of a supplier, and eventually made my way to the VP in charge of sales.  When I asked *him* for the name of someone who sold his printers he said - and this is the exact quote, as best as I remember it - "It is not corporate policy to divulge this information."  -- !
