I bought one about a month ago from OWC (macsales.com). It's a NewerTech 6600mAh battery that is something like 37% more capacity. On Panther, with my Airport card in (mind you this is a 400mhz), I get 5 hours on a charge.

Hi Folks

I'm considering a new Pismo Battery (maybe I may also get the existing
one
exchanged, but later). I was wondering about the availability and
compatibilty of Lithium Ion Extended Life Batteries for my Pismo:

http://www.truedataonline.com/xq/asp/file.item/itemID.APB-M7318/qx/
11.1V 5400mAh 12.5% Higher Capacity than the original Apple battery!

Anybody got any experience with these? Probably it wouldn't make
sense for me to try to ship a couple of these over here to Ozstrayla
but maybe similar ones are available here? Maybe I might get lucky (?)
in the coming weeks while I am visiting South Korea; despite all the
PC's there are actually Apple store there too and prices may be
more reasonable ... pricing here is near A$280 (or $360 from Apple).

I've got one for my Pismo with higher capacity cells for $109 from laptops-battery.com.

-Laurent.

fandango on core n.: [Unix/C hackers, from the Iberian dance] In C, a wild
pointer that runs out of bounds, causing a core dump, or corrupts the
malloc(3) arena in such a way as to cause mysterious failures later on, is
sometimes said to have `done a fandango on core'. On low-end personal
machines without an MMU (or Windows boxes, which have an MMU but use it
incompetently), this can corrupt the OS itself, causing massive lossage.
Other frenetic dances such as the cha-cha or the watusi, may be substituted.
See aliasing bug, precedence lossage, smash the stack, memory leak, memory
smash, overrun screw, core.
