Dell Inspiron iM1012-687IBU Mini 1012 10.1-Inch Ice Blue Netbook - Up to 8 Hours 8 Minutes of Battery Life Review

I’m not a computer expert by any means, so I was a little nervous buying a netbook since I kept reading reviews about power problems, etc. I went with Dell because it seemed to be the only one without significant problems in customer service. The first time I plugged my Inspiron mini in, it charged fully pretty quickly. The battery life seems to be well over 8 hours of internet surfing and typing - better than advertised! The second time I tried to charge, I got an error message saying it recognized that the charger was plugged in, but it couldn’t find the battery and thus was not able to charge. Same situation I had read about on a lot of the netbooks.
I turned it off then back on, no luck. Then I turned it off and removed the battery. I blew on it a little, because that worked back in the day with my Nintendo games, and replaced the battery. It is now fully charged again! Hopefully, this solution will keep working, and work for others.
