Hi,
Proprietary batterys can be an expensive proposition and I hope if
the BP uses a proprietary battery it isn't priced like the Apple Ipod
or the Screenless phone are. The Apples require shipment to Apple at
a cost of over seventy five dollars and if I remember correctly, the
Oasis sp 22c replacement battery is 50 dollars. Triple A batteries
are very small...I am sitting on the fence re the new BP or the
Sstream and now need to sort out if the Stream uses standard
batteries or something special.

It wil be a proprietary battery. Larry has said the primary reason is
that the new unit will be too thin to suport standard batteries. The
battery life will be considerably shorter than that for the current Book
Port.
