The epic touch uses same battery as the epic?

The real question is: Does the Epic Touch battery *fit* inside the regular Epic? That'd be a few extra milliamp-hours we could get from a drop-in replacement!
EDIT: Nevermind, need to click and read before posting; my bad.

I have 2 3500mah batteries and they last about 1-2hrs longer than the original.

and I read this thread again, it seems that Coz turns off everything on this phone that makes this phone worth having. If you want to really increase your battery life, just turn the phone off and leave it in your pocket. You will probably get a couple weeks out of it just turning it on for a couple minutes a day.

actually i agree with you now that i see his post about shutting off all the data ect. why have a smartphone and not just get a pre-paid flip? i buy my phones to use them and not just make calls and get 300hrs battery life.

I was going to make that comment about a flip phone, but I wasn't sure if he was actually making calls.

I am hoping to add an additional 10 minutes to my current battery life with the 1800 battery that is used in the Galaxy II touch. it is slightly thicker, but still fits in the Galaxy I Epic battery slot, according to the folks at XDA.

lulz @ 10 minutes.
I'm going to load ASC ISC 5.5 back on today and try to condition a 3500 battery.
