iPad Weight

Apple made a big deal about the battery life on the iPad but I find I could easily live with 1/3 to 1/2 the battery life in exchange for weight.  I thought about replacing the battery with a smaller one, but it looks like it would not make a whole lot of difference as posted by Kyle Wiens on ifixit.com.
