I think we should focus our efforts on a generic (non platform specific) 
solution that can work across many laptops (i.e. ACPI_BAY).  Let's make
the bay driver do what it should - I've got a stack of modules for Dell
module bays we can check against too - and I believe that Dell also 
supports charging the battery in the module bay.  I am happy to take 
patches to the bay driver, and am also happy to help develop them.  
I don't have handling content of bay changes on my radar at the moment, 
so if you do have time to work on this, that would be great.  I am happy 
to test on the set of laptops I've got.

Thanks,
Kristen
