If you dont mind it not being an OEM one, you can get an extended battery with the door for like $15 on ebay. They are everywhere on there. Ive had mine since I got the phoen and havent had any issues with it.

I bought the Seidio 3200mAh battery after reading about it on the xda, hofo, and seidio sites. Yeah, my 6700 really IS a brick now, but battery life is incredible. I surf the web for 2-3 hours, have SPB Insight doing updates every 6 hours, and make about an hour's worth of calls every day. I now charge it up every five days or so. Previously, I'd be really lucky if I got 8-9 hours with the stock UStar battery!

BTW, don't buy it at the Seidio site. Go here (direct link - http://www.htcdepot.com/seidio-3200m.../8A37A1570.htm) to the HTC Depot site instead.

I bought an OEM size Seidio extended battery and it works great i can go two days without having to charge. Works a lot better than the OEM did

Ive got a 3200Mah Seido out in the truck that I only use when I go out of town and it does last FOREVER and thats a good thing but the down side is those brand batteries are cheap.

I just bought 2 extended batteries directly from the Verizon store. Only $30 each with 2 day shipping! I'd recommend going with the official stuff considering the great price.

I recommend the seidio 3200 for the extended and seidio 1500 for slim.

I can usually get 1.5 to 2 days out of the 1500 but change to the 3200 when I am running TomTom on long trips.
