The battery on our iPaq 3630 is no longer holding it's charge. Been looking around on the net and it seems fairly straightforward to buy a replacement and do it yourself.

Anyone else tried this? Is it as doable as it looks? And is it worth going for the OEM batteries or this supposedly better one (60% longer life it's claimed)?

Thanks in advance,

Dead east to do. A couple of torx screws and the ballery just plus in.

Blimey Pug, if that's the edited version I'd like to see the original!

Thanks for the reassurance, I'll get ordering.
