My N800's battery is jacked up, and the tip from my charger broke off. I have seen batteries on amazon for 30 - 40 bucks, but does anyone know a better deal? Or if you have a spare, would you be willing to sell it?

you can always eBay it - although it will all be knock-off stuff - $20 would probably get you at least 1 battery and a charger

Yeah, go for ebay, I got a battery for my n800 for $5 with free shipping. Granted it doesn't quite last as long as the original but hey, for $5 I'm not complaining.

... You thought the explosion from one battery was pretty?
Wait until you see ten go up in a blaze of glory!

Try to at least get one which is labeled 1500mAh.... I've seen some BP-5L batteries on ebay that are labeled at 740mAh.... that is just stupid for an internet tablet.

I ended up getting two chargers and a battery on ebay for like $12. The battery actually seems to be a lot better than my original one. It's heavier, and at full charge it says 7 hrs (although it's probably more like 4, MAYBE 5). That's a lot better than my original one, which listed at like 5 or 6 hrs at full charge =)
