I've had it for months now, and everything I play has vibration these days. The one that used vibration the most was Lost Planet, by far. I was afraid the battery wouldn't last long with so much vibration, but it lasted for a looooong time before needing a charge. So, no worries about the battery life... AT ALL! I really like the heavier feel of the DS3 as well. Going back to the old SIXAXIS feels too light now... The battery life on the Dualshock 3 is at least as good as the regular SIXAXIS.

A friend of mine imported one from Japan and the back says a higher number of mAh than my Sixaxis... Dunno about the longevity though The battery is said to be stronger than the old one… A friend of mine imported one from Japan and the back says a higher number of mAh than my Sixaxis… Dunno about the longevity though

It's possible (but not certain) that the smaller battery doesn't mean less power. Also it doesn't look much smaller in the pics. We shall see how the battery life is. Segitz, agree 100%. Why not one-up the competition and add better haptics? I'd like to hear them explain this. derrick, I thought the same thing.

LENNY: "Hey Ralph, Let's put some vibrating motors in this controller which will require MORE power." RALPH: "Great Idea Lenny, Lets put a smaller battery in there too since it needs more power!"

But there is a good chance I will still take it apart, lol. Thanks for the cool post..I would have taken it apart also, you saved me time. But there is a good chance I will still take it apart, lol.
