I blew the power supply on my SheevaPlug a year after I purchased it.  While
Globalscale does sell replacements (it turned out to be a very common problem,
as the power supplies are junk), I wound up replacing it with a DC-DC board

Unfortunately, they don't make it anymore, but there may be something similar
out there.

This power supply has been working in my SheevaPlug for over 3 years.
