i ordered/received and am using a 1340 mAh GSM Diamond battery from expansys.com. it's an OEM HTC battery that's the same size/spec as the one we're using in our Diamonds. The only downside is that it comes with a GSM battery cover. i sold my cover for $12 which put my net cost to $48. it's been working just fine as of today. as far as i know, there's no difference between the GSM and CDMA batteries...

All being the same, might be a nice change to get the GSM Diamond back.

Just so I'm clear on this... This battery will fit in place of my current 900mah battery and I can use my existing cover?
You said it's the same battery...I may be overly technical in stating it is not the same battery if it's 1340mah. (unless you were speaking strictly of size and connection locations only)

As a follow up on expansys's website they have what appears to be the same battery as mentioned above (1340mah) but with a black case...

cdma stock battery is 1340 mah, gsm stock battery is 900 mah

as hes refering to getting a stock cdma batter, but comming with a gsm back, the bettery is standerd OEM, the back however is for the wrong version which lends to say that the extended gsm battery is the same as the stock cdma battery.
