I have a Key Lime Special Edition FireWire DVD iBook. After the Mac OS 10.2.4 update I have noticed my battery life drop. I need a new battery mine is 3 years old. It holds a charge for barley an hour. It was 6 hours when it was new. I bought a battery but since it was for the non-FireWire iBook the battery life was horrible! I need a new iBook battery but I can't find any lower than $166 I need it to say for the FireWire or Special Edition iBooks, otherwise the battery won't be for my version and won't last long. I am mad. Anyone else find any?:confused:
 
You might check out emscomputing.com. That is where I bought mine a while back. They sell one for $120.49. You will need to do a little research to make sure this is the one you need.
 
I suggest eBay, I was looking for a spare battery for my dual USb and its flooded with the ones for the clamshell style books. Hope that helps.
