I know people will frown on this, but I went ahead and bought one of those 9 dollars shipped battery packages on ebay. Recieved a few days ago, been cycling through the batteries and charging with the included charger. I can without a doubt tell you there is a HUGE difference in run time when a battery is charged externally(in a base charger, not through phone)
the chinese batteries really do hold up just as well if not better than the OEM battery, I'm seeing excellent results.
anyone on the fence, I wouldn't worry if I were you, much better than paying a huge premium for the seidio extended batteries, I will just throw an extra battery or two in my pocket when I know I will be away from a power source for a while. Did I mention they were under 10 dollars shipped???
This is what I purchased, took about 1.5 weeks to get to my door:
2x 1500mAh battery + dock charger for Sprint HTC Evo 4G - eBay (item 250641711190 end time Jul-29-10 01:08:58 PDT)
