    I'm looking for a replacement battery for my M1330 and I just can't seem to bring myself to spend the 135 dollars Dell wants for it. Does anyone know of a vendor who sells the OEM batteries for less? Maybe someone knows of another, cheaper battery from another manufacturer? I'd like a quality battery that will last me a decent amount of time and perform OK.

    I would buy a Dell genuine battery. Doesn't mean you have to buy from Dell, just make sure it says Dell on it. You can look for a used on on Ebay with low charge cycles/charge wear. I do NOT recommend anything 3rd party relating to power accessories (AC adapter, batteries).
