    I had not presented at the forum, my name is Nicolas and I'm from Chile.
    I have a CF-29 two years ago, at this time I've made some changes, like putting a 320GB SATA disk, change the CD for a DVDRW lighscribe, etc.

    I take this opportunity to ask if you know a good supplier of batteries that sent to South America and which one do you recommend (anything I can buy using paypal and send to Chile)

    I apologize for my english, I'm somewhat clumsy in handling the language.

    By the way, I'll tell you that here are no Toughbooks, I'm the only one who has one and it attract all attention.
    As you might imagine, a lot of rain here, snow falling at times and use my computer is something that impresses people!

    Regards!

    Edit 1: it's an cf-29e3kgzkm (but with some DIY upgrades!)

    Anyway, the best faces are not there, they come when I'm in a sleek office and put on the table the Toughbook ... contrasts too much with Macs and other disposable things like that. Always gets attention this computer, in the field or office.
