-[* black] Finally, moving along... The battery!
+[* black] As is the case with [guide|7099|most tablets|stepid=30226], the iPad 3 is really just a giant battery.
+[* black] Some help from our spudger allows us to remove the battery from the device for further inspection.
+[* black] While the iPad 2 housed a formidable 25 watt-hour Li-ion battery, the iPad 3 has upped the ante to the tune of 42.5 watt-hours.
+[* black] Its 3.7 volts and estimated 10 hours of use (9 with cellular data network) are comparable to that of the iPad 2, but we assume the extra 17.5 watt-hours are put to good use powering the greatly improved CPU and GPU.
