Clarification on 700m battery

go to Cnet.com and watch the video review of the Dell 700m, there they clarify the battery weight and look issues. The battery they say actually sticks out even w/ the standard 6cell battery about a half inch, and w/ the extended battery life the battery will stick out about an inch. yeah definately a design flaw i'd say cause it just looks weird that the battery isn't flush w/ the rest of the laptop. And about the weight i'd think that the listed weight is w/ the 6 cell and any sort of bigger battery will add weight like any other notebook.
 
My 700m 8 cell battery sticks out 1.25 in. from the back and the entire notebook weighs in @ 4.95 lbs. However I am sending this unit back since it has some flaws, and I just bought a new Sentia notebook to replace it.
