Are there safe / reliable batteries, that I can get .. cheaper than LP-E5?

Also,
How long does the LP-E5 take to charge, in the LC-E5??

Also,
Would I be better off getting the Battery grip, to use AA's? I have Eneloop NimH rechargeables, 2,000 mAh (LP-E5 is 1,080 mAh) 1.2v (LP-E5 is 7.2v?.. not sure how voltage matters..?)
my understanding is that higher mAh = longer life.. So, a single AA has more life than the LP-E5?

*Edit*
My XSi came in today, 5 days early ;)
