    I just bought T43 2687DRU....since it only comes with 6 cell battery, I wanted to buy a high capacity battery..but when I look it up on the ibm's web site, there are 4 different kinds...they all say T40/R50 high capacity battery and the descriptions look identical but the prices vary ...now..which one do I buy?

    also...I won't have exterior monitor but would like to avoid the hassle of plugging everything (ethernet and power) every time I have to use my laptop at home...do I buy a docking station? or a port replicator? what's the difference between the two? Even for these, there are several different kinds avaliable...all same descriptions...I tell ya IBM/lenovo doesn't make it easy for consumbers to buy their accessories.
    please advice for T43 newbie.
