Will this battery be compatible with the 8100 or no? I can't remember if the 8130's and 8100's batteries are compatible.

I don't know if a 8130 will work on a 8100 but I know a 8100 will NOT work on a 8130.

THis battery can only be used for BB8130 (Verizon, sprint and Telus). No new door is needed.

This is excellent news! I was hoping to hear from you guys soon.

I would imagine your battery is a little bit thicker than the OEM 8130 battery. Does this mean that it may eliminate our loose backplate problem in addition to providing us great battery support?

[BryanHarig]

What size, in mAh, is Seidio shooting for? 1100? 1050?

[bwhite757]

Beautiful!!! Can't wait for it to come out!!! I'm not complaining about my battery now, but a few more hours would be great!!!

[MannyPR]

Count me in for 1, I just got my Sprint Pearl today and although battery life seems ok doesn't compare with that of the Touch with the Seidio 1500mah extended battery!

[Redflea]

If you build it I will buy it! Maybe two. . Very happy.

[itsjesuslol]

I'd love to get an extended battery to replace this poor excuse of a pearl battery that I have.

2 hours of talking depletes a full charge, the whole day I feel like im getting ripped off because my cell only operates 2 out of 24 hours.....

I'm in! I'm tired of having to juice this thing up several times a day!

I would also be interested in a big extra capacity battery like I think you did for the older 8100. Make a nice rubberized door for it and that would be great!

How big extra capacity battery would you like to see ?

Didn't you make a 2400 sized battery for the 8100? The CDMA BB's burn through the battery faster then the GSM ones do, how about one like that?

[Redflea]

I really want an extended life battery that will fit in the stock housing - I'm much more interested in a battery that will work w/my existing Pearl body/case, etc., and not feel bulky in my pocket. I will definitely buy that. A battery that requires a different back, cases, and makes the Pearl bulkier would be of less interest to me.

I guess what I'm saying is, for me, stock sized enhanced battery - Must! Larger sized battery - not so much.

[MooseBerry]

I'd like to see both made, but if I could only choose one, I'd take the battery that fit in the OEM battery door.

They make a 2400 mAh battery/door for the 8100 (OEM is 900). It's a lot thicker so OEM cases/holsters won't work. They make a 1250 mAh battery/door too (I have it-lasts me 4 days on the average). It's just a little thicker so skins, BSE, holsters are no problem, but thin snapon cases won't fit. I wager this new one for the 8130 will be less mAh than the 1250 version, but it's nice that it fits in the case.

lol this is all i need now!!! not only do i get 200+ emails a day from work but i send nearly 6,000 text messages a month either this means i am gonna be able to accomplish more in one day or i will be setting new "sent text message" records!!! hehehehe

[themlruts]

This is a shot in the dark but what about a 7130e battery for a pearl. It fits its a little thicker which is good so the battery door doesnt slide around. This is a thought. Dont know if it would work. But i am in aon the seidio battery i just orderd there holster as well.
