They are promoting 5400mAH batteries for Lombards for $135. Seems like a good
deal.

Anyone have experience with this company?

Thanks,

Please, no "Go Google this" replies. I wouldn't
ask a question here if I hadn't done that already.

I don't, my apologies for jumping in anyway. As an alternative to buying a
new battery, I'v been having batteries rebuilt at
http://www.primecell.com/

Check their web site and see if they can rebuilt whatever battery you
need. I've had a handful of batteries for different devices rebuilt for
less than the cost of an off-brand replacement, and all have worked fine.

I haven't looked to see if Prime Cell does Lombards, but you can "Search
for a battery" at the appropriate link.

Their web site says that they are not rebuilding LiIon batteries at this
time.

You may also want to look at newertech.com.  They have what seem to be
good deals on batteries - $139 for the Lombard and longer life than the
original Apple batteries.

I have bought several things from them and have never had a problem.
