Hard to say, time will tell...
From my own experience, it's rare that I go more than an hour or two on battery. I guess for students who might use their machines around campus through the course of the day. Though they'd probably opt for the lighter, smaller 15.3" model. The other group might be a field photographers. I don't see this as a major big deal since the vast majority of laptop users I know don't carry a second battery anyway.
