    I'm seeing a lot of replacement batteries on eBay, such as the following:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=60257&item=6778927504&rd=1

    It looks like a genuine Dell battery, but I can't find the exact part number on the Dell site, and the capacity is a bit larger than the ones they sell. Is it a generic replacement? Should I avoid?

    It looks ok to me, and the seller appears to be reputable.

    Could send them an email and ask if it is a genuine Dell part. They have 27,000 sales with 99.7% positive. I'd say that is a safe bet. Good Luck.
