Well, there's the official Canon battery grip for the 40D or you can get the cheaper third party knockoff by Opteka, although it may be of inferior build quality:

Just do a search on www.pricegrabber.com for the lowest price from stores that get good reviews. I've found that a lot of the stores besides B&H work just fine.
You should get batteries from Sterlingtek.

Or I can get the grip itself for $170 from Cameta, then a couple of batteries for $24 from sterlingtek. Hows the quality and life on their batteries?
