Quite a few netbooks come (or came: the average spec may have increased since I bought mine two years ago) with a little 3-cell battery: some Acer models like my AA1 and some Dells like a friends Mini9, to name two.

Nice and light, but you only get about 2-to-2-ana-half hours (three if you are careful with screen brightness and turn wireless off). I have a chunky after-market battery that lives in the Acer giving ~7 hours active use with everything turned on, but sometimes chuck the little one back in for the size/weight convenience.
