Another thing to consider: the currently iLiad firmware support for larger batteries (especially very large ones like the 2800mAh mod) is poor-to-nonexistent. I'm thinking about writing a slightly modified kernel/powerMgr combo that will address this issue, but probably not for a few weeks at least.
That said, if you can't find someone local to do the upgrade for you, I might be willing to give it a shot. PM me if you want to discuss it. Bear in mind that the upgrade is pretty cheap as-is ($30 for the batteries), but when you add in shipping two ways and a small fee for doing the upgrade, you'll be probably spending more than $100 on it.
