Nothing prevents you from plugging into an auxiliary battery, same as goes for the iPhone. I think it is far better to have a much higher capacity internal battery and a plug-in auxiliary battery for any extended use needs than to have two lower capacity batteries. If you're going to go to the trouble of carrying an extra battery around anyway, why is it a big deal whether or not you change it out for the battery inside the computer vs using a cable to connect it. You still have to carry the dead battery around no matter what. Also, the nice thing about plug-in auxiliary batteries is that they often have much larger capacities than the built-in batteries because the maker doesn't have the concern of conserving real-estate inside the laptop.
