My battery is still ok.  Howeverm, I called the local HP a while back
to prepare for the day when the battery decides it doesn't want to
work anymore.

The local HP office gave me a quote of $75 to parts and labor to
replace the battery.  This is not really a bad price (though it
could be better).  For comparison.   My NEC MultiSpeed has a user
replaceable battery and I would have to pay $90 for just the battery
itself...todd
