  I've heard good things about them, but have not used it myself.  I have a
board that goes into the chip socket on the keyboard, and uses two rechargeable
nickelcad batteries, with a little program in the auto folder to read the
clock at boot time.  I think it's called ST-Time, and I like it.

I use an SH204 myself, and like it very much.  I've also heard good things
about the Supra.
