At the end of the day Nintendo chose power over battery life this time (just like Sony did with the PSP) and for a dedicated gaming handheld that's only a problem during a long flight or road trip or a lengthy blackout or something. These events don't happen that often to justify investing more in putting a better battery in there or downgrading the 3DS' horsepower to boost the battery life.
