Got mine. Naztech. I like the feel better in my hand than the skinny phone. It reaches my palm. Shiny black. I guess about twice as think as the original, maybe just a bit more.

So far so good. The packaging looks like an established brand, but I am not familiar with Naztech.

This looks way better to me than the Samsung/Verizon one, or the Seidio. Plus the price was great.

I picked up one of these batteries. By far it is more than I expected. 22 hours on a charge with heavy use. I got it on amazon for 25 bucks. Doesn't add to much thickness either. Its easier to hold! Awesome battery. Go buy one.

Seeing as how the naztech battery is now out of stock, this ebay battery peaks my interest, but I wonder how it will function in the phone. Anyone know if community rom supprts third party batteries?

The eBay batteries work well. I bought two different ones (both came with the identical shiny black cover). One was direct from Hong Kong and rated 2400mAh and the other came from a seller in the US (who now appears to have jacked his price WAY up) rated at 3500mAh. Both seem to have identical life. The seller of the US-based one told buyers to beware of the 3500mAh claim (and he is right). Both give me well over a full day of very heavy use. I got used to the feel of the extra thickness to the point that I now prefer it. It makes the phone perfect.

So the China version of this on Ebay is just as good? Some of the cases look cheaper on the China version - looks like shiny cheap plastic vs. the matte finish looking Naztech. Do they really take a month to receive?

I have always hated the bump look and these look nice especially for long trips where you know you will need the extra juice.

Anyone have any experience ordering out of stock on amazon? I want this battery/case, but I've only ever ordered stuff from amazon that was actually in stock when I ordered it...

Just looking to see if anyone has horror stories or if it's just a waiting game, I guess.

I cannot imagine not having to charge my phone after just a few hours of use...

Edit: went ahead and ordered it anyway. Too good a deal to pass up. With the Samsung USB cable, it came to $26.10. Can't beat that with a baseball bat. ;)
