DO NOT buy a replacement laptop battery from sellers located in Hong Kong.
The prices seem great (less than half that of a new one), but the batteries
are cr@p, and their warranty is useless.

I concur ... with few exceptions I always buy branded batteries for Laptops.

I just recently purchased a new DELL battery for my Latitude D630 from http://www.atbatt.com/ and had no problems.

I will go with non-branded batteries for cameras, but only because I always have spare batteries with me.

FWIW: The NIC I purchased works fine ... took a little digging to figure out where the 3rd antenna wire was, but I found it.
