Just for information as there's always someone who might have a similar problem.
It turns out that both the battery bays on the Wallstreet are fine, it's the original battery that's dead, stone dead.
The "new" one charges fine and I will shortly calibrate it.
Is there anything one can do to a dead Li-Ion battery ?
I never want to use a good battery in a "deasktop" Power Book, but it's always good to have some battery charge, even if it's only 10 minutes worth in case the power should die or a cable become dislodged...
