As a Verizon wireless employee I get to play around a lot with the phone and today I found that the stock battery out of the HTC Ozone (which is a 1500 mah) fits under the battery cover of ourEris. It is a hair thicker, but it fits.

I just checked the price and its listed at $39.99 and if your VIP or have an employee discount you could get it for $30
When i had the samsung omnia i had 2 batteries with a charging dock.swapped out the battery when i came home from work if needed.
i had the omnia
ugh...i think i grew grey hairs cause of that.
but i did get sometimes 24 + hours using a 6.5 rom.
my co worker has an iphone and he said "your battery last so long because, its so wack you cant do nothing with it."
he was right
The omnia would of been a much better phone with the android os.
I just think, even if i had the 1750, i probably would rely on 2 batteries, because there are days where the phone gets used heavily during the day and if it drops tp 30 or 40% by night and i am anticipating some long calls that night, its good to know i have a full battery in the dock.
I may get the battery for the Imagio and put it in. The Eris will be so cheap for me after my corporate discount (Will only be $65) that it is worth it. Otherwise, I am forced to buy a more expensive phone such as the Droid or Touch Pro 2-the Eris is plenty capable if it was not for the battery issue.
That's not a bad idea. Here's a charging dock that I've been considering:
I'm still playong around with the phone a lot and I just went almost 36 hours in between charges on this battery

Here's a supposedly OEM extended batter for the Eris (1500.) It says it fits behind the existing cover:

I was looking at the 1500 battery as well....
Anyone bought this? I am very interested in something that holds a charge a bit longer...so what if they fix the battery problem in Jan? At least with the 1500 battery, it will last even longer!
I am not even a power user....I have talked on it for maybe 30 minutes today, sent 5 text messages, received 4 text messages, maybe 3 emails...all wifi / bluetooth / gps are turned off....I took it off the charger at 8am, it's now 4:53 and dead....I think the awake time was like 22%. That's awful....
