Found for $25 on Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00563JE8K

Fits perfectly without changing the back plate. Made for the i9100 International Galaxy S II and fits our AT&T Version

Fair boost from a 1650.
Will see if it makes much of a real world difference and post back.

--------UPDATE---------

Using the battery I find about the same drain as the stock battery but the kicker is when I plug in the USB cable my phone goes into a boot loops. Sending the batteries back!

Fair boost IF it actually meets its rated capacity. Most cheapo aftermarket batteries don't even come close.

My Infuse 3500 mAh battery is probably closer to around 2500 based on initial testing.

What (eventually) happens to NFC if you don't use an "NFC battery?"

I figure if NFC is not even activated on this phone yet, might as well get the most juice for your phone. We'll reach that hill when we get there. By then they will have one with NFC.

Might short out the NFC controller or damage it in some other way...

My guess would be that the NFC battery has special shielding to keep from interfering with the NFC signal... but who knows?

Or maybe it just handles fast drain better...

Did you read the thread about battery compatibilities? If the battery doesn't have NFC, it will loop when you plug in to recharge. Recharging with a stand alone charger and then using it in the galaxy is fine.

I got the batteries too. They're great if you travel, or forget to charge your phone often. They do boot-loop. Nothing you can do to stop that.

Can someone tell me if I can charge the stock Samsung battery with this charger?
If so, I can cycle through all 3 batteries by charging it without the USB cable.

It would suck if I have to charge 1 with USB and some with charger... yikes..
