Try eBay. I bought a whole bunch of gumsticks that came with returned units that were refurbished, so they were "like new".

It should be interesting to see what Duracell will do with the new gumstick they are coming out with. It won't be rechargible, so I wonder what price they will sell it at. It wil be very valuable as a backup - for travelling etc since its smaller than a charger and/or the AA case that comes with MD's and PDCP's.

cool, but not chargeable, cant use. no point of spending $10 on two battery to use for 8hours on my iriver and then throw it away.

Check the quote - I believe he meant the Duracell batteries aren't rechargeable.

The Sanyo's sold at iriver (1400 mAh, $20/pair + shipping) are rechargeable - just look at the sight as posted above.

Gumsticks also available at tnrtechnical.com for $7 each plus shipping for Sanyo 1350 mAhs.
