Where can I find a battery for a latitude C400?

[Howard]

I have a Dell Latitude C400 (now replaced by the D400) and I can't find an extra battery for it on their website. Anywhere else good to look to find a battery for a now discontinued laptop? I live in the states, so it has to be somewhere here, not in australia. (great country, but I think the shipping will cost more than the battery.)
Any help is appreciated.

i'm sure you can find one on ebay for half the origional price post at dell's website.

yeah, taking from what cooll said ... here you go and this is just a quick search:

<A HREF="http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?cgiurl=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/&krd=1&from=R8&MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&query=latitude+c400" target="_new">ebay</A>

and then i googled and found this ... <A HREF="http://www.simplemicro.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=NU-DELC400&ProductName=DELL LI-ION BATTERY FOR LATITUDE C400" target="_new">c400 battery</A>

probably you can find more places with better prices - might try <A HREF="http://www.pricewatch.com" target="_new">pricewatch</A> as well.

Are there any other places to look other than ebay? It drives me nuts that as soon as the laptop was discnonuted, all the accessories goes down the drain with it.

Thanks for the replies. There's also this problem: there's a 4 cell and a 6 cell version, and its hard to differentiate between the two. I'm not going to pay 100 for a 4 cell version.
