    Thanks for having me here! I've searched for a few minutes but didn't find anything on this model. I have a Vaio PCG 321-A that needs a new battery. Vendors seem to not have many/any. Could anyone point me to a list of batteries compatible with this model? I'm starting to think the 321-A is a pretty old and/or pretty rare model but so many of the Vaios look similar, I was hoping some of the batteries would be interchangeable. Thanks for any help you can provide!

    I still haven't found anything on this. Does anyone have a good list of cross-compatible batteries?

    Dead for me, too =/

    Well, use google to search for "PCG 321-A" and look at sites on first few pages, many of them sell batteries.
