>From the message below, can I correctly assume that the new Lithium Ion
battery (for the 755CX, i guess) can work in a stock 755CE ???? or do the
LI batteries only work in a 755CE which has been upgraded to a pentium?

(also, as an aside, does the pentium upgrade include the 256K L2 cache that
the 755CX has? i do not think the 755CE has a secondary L2 cache as is...)

i though someone was saying that the charging logic for NiMH and LI are
totally different....

if it does work, what kind of improvement in battery life would i get in my
755CE with a LI -vs- the NiMH the machine shipped with?

thanks, Todd
