Anyone (or seen) any tests on how long the new 12" iBook's battery lasts while playing DVDs?

Aw, c'mon. Somebody stick a DVD in your iBook and let it play while they're watching Must See TV tonight, so we can all know how well this is going to handle airplane movies. :-)

Thanks much, Dave! That about clinches my iBook decision.
A pair of batteries should handle DVD entertainmnent for a cross-country flight just fine, then.
