Maybe I just create a "spares" product? with 3 batteries, and some other goodies thrown in?
What goodies would go in that bag? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ian douglas Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 8:19 PM To: List for Openmoko community discussion Subject: Re: Price of the Freerunner spare parts Wolfgang Spraul wrote: > There are lots of clones of these Nokia batteries, we bought a few and > can give you the names.

I'd rather not buy a 'maybe' battery and would rather buy a branded battery direct from OM... But if enough people test these BL-?C batteries and prove they work just fine and nobody has any incidents related to a Nokia battery, then okay, I'll look for a local vendor selling them if I need a spare battery. I ran into the same issue with my iRiver digital music player, I needed a replacement, but iRiver didn't make this model any more so after-market batteries were all that were left. In the end, an iPod replacement battery did the job, but the polarity on the jumper header needed to be switched before plugging it in and reassembling the case. I only ordered the battery once I'd read about 20 personal accounts that, yeah, this particular battery worked just fine, no incidents. Just the 'realist' in me coming out to play. :o) _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
