3953 mAh

Ouch! My MacBookPro's battery capacity has dropped to 71% -- but it was at 98-ish% before I left for this trip and used my laptop on battery power on the airplane and yesterday at BarCampBlock.

I suspect that I should be able to get the battery replaced at the Apple Store under warranty -- 30% capacity drop after 17 loadcycles doesn't sound right at all.
