I doubt they're still being made, but you can probably get a definitive answer from Pulster or GoldenDelicious. The SANYO UF653450S they contain still seems to be available, so sticking the controller board on a new cell should be possible. Of course they could be old stock too. My reading of the BQ27000 datasheet is that it'll get a power-on-reset when the new cell is attached, and should then learn the new cell capacity. I may have missed something important though. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
