As you may recall, this follows a brief spat of seeming availability in January but, judging from some of the responses on the HP Mini forums, it looks like HP has since canceled the few orders that got through before the battery was pulled from its site."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1237152791.usr10.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p>I'm guessing but the shape of the bump on the battery, that it will boost the rear of the laptop along with boosting your battery life.&nbsp; Looks like it is currently available for $95.99.&nbsp; If you use coupon code SV2130, you should be able to lop an extra $10 off of that.</p>
