I bet you keep that in mind the next go round. Order a replacement even
earlier.

Parts support said it will be the 2nd week of March before we see more
batteries. We just received a batch from the supplier but there were
enough orders pending that all of that stock was used. If I get any
confirmation that it will ship sooner, I will give you a call.

Gee, I didn't know we were living in the Soviet Union during the height of
communism.

Or does it take that long to produce a shipping container full in China,
send it over by boat and then get it distributed?

He he. Guess where that was. I called about mine and he was there 2 days
later with the battery.

I strongly suggest checking your cache batteries on a regular basis and
when the time to warning gets down to 45 days or so, calling IBM and
ordering it then. Mine have been backordered a while and I am still
waiting on a replacement.

Apparently some batteries are harder to get ahold of than others. At
least that's what he said when I called him and he said he was just
finishing a battery replacement somewhere else and I asked him where was
mine. He still doesn't have an ETA from his parts depot.
