[Techlunch] Dead Li-ion Smart Battery?

[techlunch at happy.emu.id.au]

G'day,

What do you do with old, replaced Laptop batteries?

I am desperately seeking a dead (non-functional) Laptop Li-Ion Smart 
Battery pack
of the following types (for internal parts):

IBM P/N 02K6626, or BAT30N3L , or Mitsubishi CGR-B1840AE
Or any other battery that contains a Mitsubishi Smart Battery monitor 
chip, M61040FP.

Can you help with one or more of these?

Thanks,
Dennis Gibson
