Best news I've heard in a long time relating to phones. Thanks!

very good that htc is somewhat standardizing their batteries. hopefully it continues as batteries get better.

I dont remember where i saw that batteries for tp2s are better than evo even though they are the same size and capacity! i was like how can that be? well i had my tp2 layin around and decided to try! honestly i was even thinkin of returning my phone cuz i saw somebody say why having a phone soo powerfull that dies on your hands in hours like 4 to 6 and we all know that a good phone needs to hold up at least 8 well this morning i started my test unplugged the phone @ 7 am went out the whole day out using the phone a bit harder than what i usually used my tp2 its 7:20 pm and has 25 percent left without a single charge but and yes i been tetherin for the past 30 min now im doin the math thats 12 hours rite i could be either be goin crazy or im gettin what im gettin but one thing is for sure im kepping my evo now!

It seems as if the TP2 battery last a bit longer. I definitely noticed a big change.

I swap 2 of them out all the time, no problems.

Hhuu It seems to be more than just a red color the diff betwen the 2 batt

I <insert number here> that. I've got a few of the cheapo (supposedly) 200Mah batteries from Avandia or whatever the name of that company is. I opted to put back my red phone and use a clear back cover hard case because it looks cooler, but yes, TP2 and Evo share the same contacts and alignment. Works perfectly.
