Actually, from what I've read on the net, it's no big deal to rebuild
the battery. If you open it up, it's just 3(?) Gates Cylon 2V cells.
As for a source for a charger, here's my two favorite Mac places:
Intragate (intramac_at_aol.com) 505-265-7759
Timco Computers (lance_at_lance.seanet.com) 206-933-6090
http://www.timco-computers.com
Intragate has slightly better prices, but Timco is slightly more likely
to have it in stock. YMMV
