I live on Long Island NY and just got off phone with radio shack. After inquiry to their repair center they called me and said yes they have the battery for this unit and they are able to replace the battery and the cost of the battery and labor is about $103. They also said that the turn around time is about one week. I inquired at a store located in Commack, ny. But your local radio shack store should be able to do this also. Good luck everyone.
