On the Battery subject... I own the 05R/W so I'm not sure how close the internal workings are to the X5. However, I have had to take the unit apart for repair on several occasions (It seems to fall to the ground quite easily for me). The battery is easily accessible and can be found at any Radio Shack. But, I've had my unit for eight years and the battery still works great. No leakage anywhere. Just thought you should know.
