Set Your LocationLink?
or go to the store and get it immediately at that price. lol
it's been on sale since the shortly after the release date.
Does the extended battery fit with the original cover? Or does it come with another cover and if so, How much bulkier does that make it.
It comes with a cover. I found my OE to fit better so I only need one.
You just have to try them both.
The thickness difference has to be measured to see it. You can just feel the weight being a little bit heftier.
I like it.
I have not done a test by the numbers so all I can say is that its a noticeable difference. Enough that I opted for the 2nd spare be the extended.
I like to keep a spare in the car and one in the house.

the extended battery SEVERELY limits the selection of cases that will fit it, and offers little extra in battery life. returned mine.
I'm calling BS on that one. You can hardly tell the difference. Guess your gonna have to see for yourself eh?
i did see for myself-tried 8 different cases
call it what ya like
Your talking a 1mm or less difference dancing boy! Heh! I call em like I see em.

I think this must just be really subjective. I have two cases, and they both fit great with the extended battery. (The Incipio two-piece from the VZW store, and the Cruzer Lite TPU Androidified case from Amazon)
And I'm getting incredibly improved battery life, far more than the extra 13% mAh can really account for. So much so, in fact, that I'm beginning to believe that my standard battery was just bad. I'm now getting about 20 hours on a single charge, with 3-4 hours of screen on time. (No 4g though, as I'm not in a 4g area) Before, I couldn't get through 12 hours without plugging in.
As far as cases it does limit the amount of cases that work
The Verizon Kickstand case doesn't fit properly .. The Casemate Barely there doesn't fit at all also the Feather case doesn't fit
The VZW Silicon fits , the Diztronic fits and the Seidio active w/ kickstand fits and actually fits better with the extended battery cover as with the stock cover the charger and headphone jack are slightly misaligned IMO
