Re: Get spare parts in NYC (batteries)
the batteries should be pretty standart stuff. I got the same form factor in my nokia (although it is a bit shorter, the connectors are in the right place and the width is the same). I suggest you should simply walk into the next mobile accessory store with the battery to get a compatible one. No need to import anything if I am correct.

Is there a local distributor or buyers group with active orders, by any chance?

Re: Get spare parts in NYC (batteries)
Yes, I know as I also own quite a few BC-5s and remakes ;-) But I'm looking specifically for the original ones to have the coulomb counter and a working charge meter...

Personally, I don't want to spend $50 when all I really want is one spare Freerunner battery. Don't want/need the headset or pouch, would use the extra batt if I had it but don't need it so would rather save the $$. (I've got two BL-5Cs and a BL-6C from my nokia 6600, so in a pinch I can use one of them - I make sure one is always charged and tucked in the armrest in my car - but as with Stefan I'd like to be able to see at least an estimate of remaining charge) j ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Personally, I don't want to spend $50 when all I really want is one spare Freerunner battery. I am using the pouch that came with my FR for the spare inner tube on my bicycle and I have not opened the baggie with the headset yet so I don't want more of them. Batteries should be available separately as should other replacement parts. Brian ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Yeah, I'd like an official FIC battery but if they don't sell them, singly, for a reasonable price I'll go elsewhere.
