I thought it was going to be available through Verizon...
No word on the VZW site. I love the phone. I would feel more comfortable about just buying another battery (stock) if the snap in system wasn't so tedious-I have a feeling I am going to break something if I keep swapping.
 
According to the Launch package that was leaked, there will be an extended battery product number VZW6300BATX1. It also states Direct Fulfillment for Launch POST LAUNCH. Im assuming that it should be hitting the stores any day now since weve passed launch day. I dont think it would have been included in the official employee launch package if it wasnt really intended on being sold at some point.

On a side note, in that same launch package it states the Car Mount would be Post Launch but my contact at VZW called me a few hours after opening on the 29th to let me know they had gotten them in so take it as you will.

Original 2150 release date was May 31, it changed to July 31 but could be out sooner. Price for battery and back will be 79.99, I found them on the site below but it says out of stock so I'm not sure if they released some early or what.

As usual the superior extended batteries will be WAY over-priced, the Sendio extended batteries or whatever they are called are total garbage for $40, get an extra standard and wait for the good stuff I guess.

I do NOT understand why they made the battery Droid red, and the replacement door black--the door is the part that will show! DUH. If they can't attend to this basic level of design, the battery might be a POS... I'm just sayin'. :thinking:

Been writing to Doug, the Boss of Battery Boss (batteryboss.org). In the course of checking about a battery, I took off my Droid's red case...took off the back of the phone to examine my battery...DUH, the inside of the phone is red but the case is black. I've been using a red protective case for so long, I think of the phone as red. So my mistake: The extra back SHOULD be black, and the battery should be red, as they have done it.

Sorry! :D
