It appears that Asustek, Hong Kong, have decided to offer users free upgrades of the Eee PC 900 batteries due to a slip-up that saw reviews and presentations include a larger capacity battery than was actually shipped. While this is good for Hong Kong, it may not apply to the rest of the world. ASUS are also saying that the standard battery for the Eee PC 900 will be the 4400mah version.

Here in Taiwan, I bought a Linux Eee PC 900 with a 5800mah battery on Tuesday. After reading the HK posts, I told the sales staff that I wanted to check the size of the battery before I purchased it. We opened the box and I was relieved to find the larger 5800mah battery and bought the machine. Getting a 4400mah battery would have been a deal breaker for me.
