Default Need suggestion for battery to purchase

I'm in the market for a battery for my Atrix 4g. I don't want one that needs a change for the backplating. (I have a nice car dock for it that I have and want to continue using that doesn't support thicket Atrix cases)

So the guidelines are:
-no new backing for the phone (original cover)
-highest battery size possible
-id prefer it if the phone recognized the true % of the new battery instead of the "stuck at 1% but still have lots of battery left" bug a lot of people are running into with other batteries

Appreciate any help! (I've looked all through the forums and can mostly find support/threads for the extended batteries with the new backings)

and this

I discovered this also as I bought a 2nd Atrix 4G and it came with 2 spare batteries that always show 1%. I guessed it was due to them being not original. Does that 2300mha battery show proper battery stats?

Buy the Motorola Universal Dual-Charging Portable Power Pack (Motorola P793 Power Pack) - Black - Retail Packaging @ Amazon for $22. It's amazing. Small (4" (110mm) long, 2.2" (55mm) wide and 0.4" (10mm) thick, and weighs about 2 ounces) and light as a feather and capable of instantly powering/charging your Atrix and many other devices thru a separate USB outlet SIMULTANEOUSLY. Bought a second one for my wife to be able to have instant power/recharge for her Windows mobile device. Devices can be used while charging. One of my "best buys"!
