	Well, I have a ][c+ and have been anxiously awaiting an Gel-Cell
type battery to be offered by someone (Hopefully AE!).  The ][c+'s power
supply is internal, and very easy to remove, so I figured it was only a
matter of time before one was offered.
	Since I have not seen such a product, does anyone know enought
about "building" batteries that they might be able to tell me how to
build one myself, or where to get one... and how long it might last
under normal operation?
	As for the LCD screen... I'm looking for one too!! Any ideas?
