AT&T is offering a subsidized Samsung Go with 3G through their website and in stores. We liked this netbook when we first reviewed it earlier this year, but that was when it had a 6-cell battery and lasted over 8 hours. The AT&T model has a 4-cell battery and lasts just over 2 hours on a charge.
Why would AT&T take a perfectly good netbook and make it less appealing for their store? It's as if they don't want people to use the 3G network as much. Take a look at all the other netbooks AT&T offers: small, 3-cell batteries. Why take away one of the key features of netbooks, their longevity?
