You haven't worked much with Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries have you?! They last longer in operation per size unit than Nickel-Cadmium, but they do not hold their charge as well over time. That's just the facts of life. You'll have to go to another battery technology if you want to avoid it, but they have their own set of advantages and disadvantages too. > I am still planning to call IBM on this topic. Have fun. It's not IBM's fault. Its just NiMh batteries. ----- Randy Whittle whittle@scf.usc.edu University of Southern California School of Business (Fight on, Trojans!) - Motorcycle nut, HP 48 & 100LX user, and...*Proud* to be Conservative!
