Turned my MacBook on this evening, the battery icon is showing as an X...

I've reset the PRAM, reseated the battery and reset something else, of which the name escapes me. Also removed the "Battery Updater" and reinstalled that.

Anything else to suggest?
 
It was very nearly dead, turned it off just after the warning. I haven't got time to make two trips to Sheffield and back, I'll have to encourage them to be cooperative and sort it in the day while I'm available.

If it is in this "deep sleep" has it rendered the battery useless, or do they do something magical to get it going again?
 
Spoke to them this morning, they offered to send me one out. I took the option to pick one up from Sheffield when I'm somewhere near there on Sunday.

Refused to hold one for more than 24 hours though, so I've got to ring them back tomorrow and hope they've still got some in stock.
