just to add some more pictures of the mugen... note that the pic with the sd card is a micro sd card adapter. it's the same size as a regular sd card. don't let the "micro" throw you off. lol.

Yeah. I'm concerned about that too. It looks like it's smooth and slick like the stock one. D'oh..

So what do you think of the Mugen battery and its performance?

Just got one myself. I used to always have to be tethered to a charging cable in order to get through the day no matter the custom rom I had or how little I did on the phone. I could get through work without charging but if I planned to do anything after work I had to be charging all through work to make sure I had enough for the afternoon/evening. On trips I had to make sure I brought an extra battery, charger, cables, so forth so I wouldn't be without a phone. Now none of that, I surf heavily, I have all my email accounts checking at 30 minute times, rss hub checking every hour, tickertape checking every 30 min, weather every hour with spb weather and it will last me from 5:30 a.m. untill 11 p.m. and still have around 40% left. I HATE the added size truthfully but the more I use it the more I love the added functionality and it becomes worth it. I just hope that a Lithium Ion Polymer battery comes out that is shaped tightly so as to take out a lot of the size but still be around 3000mah

today is my first day testing it, so no comment on performance. but i will say this, i completely agree with the others about texting and typing feeling more pleasureable. i love it. feels pretty solid to me. thus far, i love it!

and another thing i love is how deep the hole is to the camera lens. no worries scratching it now, though i do wish they incorporated a lens cover vs leaving just an open hole...

[sanjsrik]

who is the manufacturer and where did you get it?

The 1500 is only 15% of an increase over the original. I just got the Seidio 2000mAh today and can see a HUGE difference in standby and talk time. I talked for about 4 hours and it was down to about 15%...

Then I plugged it in to charge it but of course that stupid overheating protection thing built into the phone kept it from charging so I had to hang up until the phone cooled down. Not trying to change the topic here but can someone point me to a fix for this (without damaging the phone)? I haven't found one...

Yea I'd pay $150 for a 3000mAh that was as slim as the 2000.
