    I know there is a "bargains" forum but technically, this isn't a bargain BUT it is a GREAT FIND for those of you looking for the BPL13 Extended Battery (like myself!). I just ordered one from CDW and it is In-Stock. I have been looking for this battery for last 3-4 mths and it is very hard to find as it has been discontinued. I bought a non-OEM battery off of fleabay and my notebook would not recognize it. I read that SONY has battery "recognition" built into its BIOS to avoid the usage of non-Sony batteries...anyway, if anyone else is looking for this battery, give them a call at (800)750-4239. Item # is 1543179 and it's $131.99 vs $250+ on Amazona Marketplace or eBay
