I beg to differ. Lithium Polymer and Ion are "the same" but the package is different. These small batteries are in the polymer configuration. That is why they balloon when they go bad. They are little foil sandwiches...

"A compelling advantage of Li-poly cells is that manufacturers can shape the battery almost however they please, which can be important to mobile phone manufacturers constantly working on smaller, thinner, and lighter phones."
