The basic approach I can think of is visit dealextreme.com and look at the cellular phone batteries. A lot of them specify dimensions, though you may have to scroll all over the page to find them. Find one that's the right size, and be ready to solder wires onto it since the connectors are likely to be in the wrong place. Or if you want to be upscale, figure out which expensive OEM battery the DX battery replaces, then go to a phone store and buy the expensive battery. In my experience the DX batteries don't work as well as the originals, but they are usable, and cost way way less.
