Decent 3rd Party Battery For Samsung NC10 - Any Recs?

The battery on my Samsung NC10 Netbook has finally given up the ghost and I am trying to decide whether to go for another computer and just run the NC10 on mains or whether to obtain a replacement battery. I do have an application for the NC10 purely on mains so I'm a bit torn as what to do.
Because of the amount of use it gets I can't justify the full cost of a new battery from Samsung so was wondering about a 3rd party battery instead. I've done a fair bit of looking and one of the main comments from folk is that despite their published capacity, 3rd party batteries don't last as long as the original between charges.
Has anyone any experience of going down this route and would care to share a source/brand of battery that approaches the endurance of the original.
This battery is also used on some other Samsung models so if you have experience of those it would be useful.
Many thanks.
