Angry 2150mAh + Extended Door

EDIT: It's here!
http://shop.htcpedia.com/index.php?d...product_id=819

It appears to be OEM, and is gonna be much cheaper than the crap out now.

My main issue, what cases are gonna fit around this nicely?
I don't want it to be a fatso.. Then theres also the issue of heat, considering the larger battery and a case on top.
Thoughts?

I see at the bottom of the page they are suggesting to buy the brackettron car mount.

Does that mean the official car dock won't fit with this higher back and battery?

I really want the bigger battery, seems i'll have to get a new dock too.

Correct, the phone will be too big to fit the official car dock with a extended battery on it.

What I recommend is buying the battery and holding off on the car dock. Is the battery gonna make THAT much of a difference? Really?

After reading the thorough comparisons of OEM and aftermarket batteries in the N1 forum (by user dougie i believe?)
I thought it would be a better idea to wait for an HTC extended battery.
Save money, and guaranteed quality.
I haven't tried seidio products so I can't say they are bad, but i'd trust HTC over them anyday.

I've used their cases and extended cap batts on BlackBerries and, now, on my DINC. Probably had 6 extended caps on BlackBerrys, and their holsters are the only ones I'll use - nothing but the best quality and design.

As for the extended cap batts, they perform the way I'd expect them to. I've had not difficulties with them, nor have I experienced anything that would keep me from continuing to buy their product in the future. The only "downside" is that yes, they tend to be on the pricier side but, again, worth it. Just my opinion and experience though.
