No, The 8700 with extendede battery will fit properly into Seidio unskin holster. It will not fit into Seidio skin holster (skin holster only works with 8700 with skin.

I have been using the RIM extended battery for some time and just ordered the Seidio extended - I like the idea of the extra mah. My rim battery however will not charge with a wall charger past about 65% - I have to charge it via USB. Any issues with the Seidio not charging with the wall charger?

Seidio is aware of this issue as we read through the threads of this forums.
We tested our extended batteries with RIM wall charger and USB cable. It did not have any problems.

Mine still says ready to ship. Is this accurate or have the parts actually already shipped?

For those who received Seidio 2400 mah extended battery, can you provide some feedbacks ?

[FLIP954RR]

Received my ext. batt this past Saturday.
Fit and finish A+ and only charged once fully and still has a full bar(charged it Sat. night into Sunday morning)
So far-very satisfied with the purchase!! I want to see how it would be in the long-run.
Does the battery have any warranty from Seidio?

[martin_j001]

Just received mine today. +1 on fit and finish--looks good, fits good, A+ in that arena. I'm charging it as we speak, and I'll report tomorrow on battery life, as I'm planning to leave my bt headset connected all day while at work.... It makes the bb feel a little heftier, and actually fits in one hand a bit better now, for simple scrolling and reading at least.

I believe it is within the first 6 months. There was a piece of paper in the same shipping box.

Please provide the feedbacks on battery life

[martin_j001]

I charged the bb overnight last night with the new battery. Options->Status confirmed a 100% charge in the morning. At work today (7:30am to 4pm) and then when I got home to now (5pm to 6pm) I have had my bt headset connected (Plantronics 640) and on. Sent/received about 50 emails today, made about 25-30 minutes of voice calls, and no web browsing. Battery is currently at 85%, no bars missing on display.

I second martin_j001 comments, thumbs up on the finish of the door, looks great on the 8700g. I will report back with feedback on the battery as well.

[martin_j001]

Was connected to headset until around 7pm or so. As of 9pm, charge is still at 85%....

[quazimodo]

I charged mine up last night and have had it on since about 6 AM. It is now almost 9 PM and I am still at 80%. I have probably done about 70 e-mails and about 20 - 30 minutes worth of phone calls.
