We perform an orthogonal basis tight-binding fit to an LAPW
calculation of paramagnetic NaxCoO2 for several dopings. The
optimal position of the apical oxygen at each doping is resolved,
revealing a non-trivial dependence of the band structure and Fermi
surface on oxygen height. We find that the small hole
pockets are preserved throughout all investigated dopings and discuss
some possible reasons for the lack of experimental evidence for these
Fermi sheets.
