And how would the company make money when ppl arnt buying their products?



Unless you're going to pay $400+ for an app
Instead of charging $595 for an AP, you charge $250 for the app that would do everything the AP would do. With so many people having smart phones, it would increase sales even though they would make less per unit. Just sayin'

I can't see anyone paying over $100 for an app.

And by doing so there's the high probability that ppl will hack the app and make it free.

OK tired of having to charge my phone 2-3 times a day when I am streaming stuff and surfing the internets. What do yall know about extended batts. for phones.

Stock batt in my phone is 1850 mAh
Mugen Power Slim Extended 2000mAh $45 (standard size batt)
Seidio Innocell Super Extended 3800mAh $66 (oversized comes with new back cover)
Mugen Power Extended 3,800mAh $92 (oversized comes with new cover)
Andida Extended Slim Battery 2250mAh $14 (standard size low price raises red flag)

Anyone know anything about the above brands?
Not sure if I want to use the oversized ones, than my case will not fit and I have a hard enough time getting it in my pocket as is. I know the slim one does not have much more power over the stock batt. but the slim size is preferable.

slim wouldnt be worth the money..

if you need more battery, the extended ones would be the way to go. That or you buy an external battery charger to charge your phone on the go.

Been reading up about putting a small solar panel on the back of the case and running the cord through the back panel straight to the batt. Not sure if it is a good idea yet need to do more research.

I had a Seidio extended battery on my old phone(evo 4g) and never had an issue with it.

Just got a Samsung 2200mAh for my GNex on amazon for $25. Usually lasts me a day but I carry a spare with me.

I'm thinking about getting an extra OEM 2500mAh Note battery for $20 on Amazon. This battery life sucks donkey *****.
