i'm a little concerned about the cover (as displayed in the picture) and how it covers the camera. i'll be interested in how that back cover fits. look forward to the pics...

Extended Battery arrived today!
Looks good at first sight :D some use will tell if it's really good.
comes in a nice package, battery is sink wrapped itself (nice touch) and shows an hologram. back cover fits well, there's no slop. Thickness raises a bit, quite acceptable for a trade of longer run time :D Actually trinity don't feel bad in hand with extended cover..
it come with 60% remaining charge. I'll charge overnight whis evening..
here's some pics!

thanks for the pics... can you take a couple more pics looking from the top and bottom of your Trinity while face (screen) down? it appears to me that the new cover has nicely rounded contours and does not distract from the devices' overall appearance. thanks again.

Thanks for the great pics. Please let us know about the practical battery perfromance, compared to the stock 1500.

When testing various batteries made for Prophet, I found that the extended time batteries "leaked" faster than stock.

Can you install the BatteryStatus cab & let us see the comparison?

Thanks.

@dave: color matches my black trinity

@cortezzi: sorry, i couldn't make any pics with my digital camera, maybe next days i'll have some time to do them :rolleyes:

@deviluck: since now, i used my trinity in many ways (pda, internet sharing, etc) so since i don't have a "regular" usage pattern, i can't tell exactly and scientifically how this battery performs. I could tell you my feeling about it, instead. I can tell that it lasts about 30% longer than original battery and it get less warm when using "connection sharing", the most battery demanding app i use. Actually, when i got new battery i also installed WM6 and since then i noticed battery stays much cooler with conn.sharing (this effect is also with the standard battery, so this effect is somewhat doubled by new battery and WM6).
Discharge curve seems to be more regular, while the original stays "full" (80-90%) region then it jump to "empty" region (30-20%) quite fast, this extended one seems to stay also in the middle region more time, showing a more "linear" discharge. Also, i can still use the famous silicon cover, it enlarges a bit but still usable :)
I think i'm still breaking in, so maybe performance will increase still a bit.
