[ltp] battery woes

[Wolf Wiegand]

Hi,

since my R40's battery is basically dead (it only lasts a mery 5
minutes), I'm in search for a new one. What I've found is this:

http://www.akku.net/AKKUINFO/IBM%20ThinkPad%20R40%20Serie/1.10.IBM.2.180

The site says that the battery has a capacity of 4000 mAh. Since my
original battery has nothing written on it concerning the capacity, is
4000 mAh ok? A colleague told me that there are extra capacity
batteries. Are those recommandable? And, last question, what is a
good/recommendable shop in Germany to buy thinkpad batteries?

Thanks for any help,

Wolf
