Not in and of itself; I believe that HP is shipping them with Kodak
Supralife alkaline batteries. However, NiCd N cells are available; one
place where I have seen them advertised is in the catalog that EduCalc
puts out (and since the perversity of the universe tends to a maximum,
I took my EduCalc catalog home, so I don't have the address). I
believe that a set of four NiCd N cells and a recharger go for
something in the neighborhood of $20-$30.
