First thank you to everybody i read all the pages learned lots of thing but because of the deleted links my head looks like a wastebasket :P
i bought my H340(us) in 2004 and i bought AA battery adapter and imp550 remote with it. Only one time i dropped it. And never need to use the reset button.(Now it uses 1.31k). It looks like unbeliavable but i use my iriver more than 10 hours per day and the inner battery is still the first and the original battery. Nearly 6 months ago i started to use the external battery too(for long playtime) With External Battery Pack my iriver was big and heavy but it wasn't a problem for me. But 2 months ago the inner battery come close to over and the AA battery adapter started to don't help me. I think that it's the best time for buying battery but i have some questions:
To Saint or Denny or whoever knows something about my questions:
I found some cameron sino batteries on ebay but from the last post(i guess) they started to sell H340 batteries too that no wire modification needs(isn't it

).

in other hand still apple 1st/2nd gen batteries in there:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Replacement-for-...QQcmdZViewItem
- is there any difference between this two product? or just a 7$ for the wire changing?
- When i'm replacing my battery; do i have to take out the blue padding or the battery size is suitable for H340?(for ipod 1st/2nd gen battery and iriver battery [if you know])
- in somewhere(4 hours past and i'm still reading topics =) ) one of the user said that: the cameron sine battery which is came from hong kong caused problem in his/her player. Is it possible or it's probably about the user/player?
- Finally you recommended the dealer "licketysplitauction s" on ebay aren't you? I want to be sure.(or Is there anyone who make shopping from him/her.)
I can share one of my experience. During 3 years i always used the plug i didn't prefer to use the USB and i think that generally it affects positive the players working times.
Anyway thanks arigato danke schön
