> Jameco still shows a robust selection of NiCad cells and batteries.

It's true that they have a lot listed, although I'm not sure if I'd apply
the term "robust" when they don't name any manufacturers.

I suppose that like any technology it gets dropped first by the big-name
distributors, then the catalog houses, then the grey-market distributors  
like Jameco, then the surplus places.

I may be anal about it but I've always been leery of buyng grey-market
consumables like batteries.  I guess I'll just have to lower my standards!
