I just got my 8320 from craigslist today and I have quick question: can I use the battery from my old 8100 as a backup for my 8320?
the size is the same, but the 8320 feels a bit more dense and is certainly a little thicker...does this mean that there is a fundamental difference in voltage / (mili)amperage or just capacity of the battery?
In a pinch I think you can use it. If fit is the same, then the only difference is that Curve batteries have higher mah (1100) than Pearl batteries (900mah).

Yeah... i fully charged my 8100 battery (yellow) and put it in my 8320... it didnt turn on, i jsut got the red light and then a few seconds later a battery w/ a slash through it appeared on screen.
looks like my battery wont work...
oh well, i almost always have enough juice to get what i need done
EDIT: after further testing, it appears that they 8320 battery (blue) will work with my 8100! so it seems that W/E miliamperage rating the 8100's battery is putting out it isint enough for my 8320.

That's an interesting turnout. I would have figured that the 8100 battery would work in a curve but because of the lower mah, it just wouldn't last as long.
