The old Captivate batteries work fine, they just have a bit smaller capacity. This wasn't super important to me, but it's a plus since I have three batteries for the original Cappy.
Also, I've found the keyboard took no time at all to adjust to.

it should be fine, my Cappy's battery fits on my glide (though it's a bit thinner), both the devices' batteries are the same with the exception of the capacity.
Ok thanks for the answers

I know one gets what u pay for, and the only extended battery of mention is Mugen, but I thought I share this:

I guess I should mention, that two or so months ago, all these "chinese extended batteries" weren't around for the glide, now ebay is flooded with them. And I'm wondering if anyone has had any luck with them. And yes, mugen extended is still the battery of choice. Wasn't there "acesoft" batteries at one point too?

I will try one and see if it works great with the ICS leak.

Just bought one i will report its qauilty when it arrives.

Yeah, I just stumbled upon this and would love to see how it works. Sounds like it could be an excellent way to spend $10.
I recently got a "chinese extended battery" of a similar make via ebay for my gfs HTC Thunderbolt, and she tells me that, and i quote "seems to last just a lil bit longer" than her stock battery.
I also just purchased one for the glide today, so I'll see how it holds up. I may just pay the $80 for the Mugen battery, because I hear nothing but awesome things.
But i also use a portable phone charger, which works great. Marware 2,600mah portable charger, that i got for $5 via dealnews back in july ( http://dealnews.com/Marware-2-600-m-Ah-AMPED-Portable-Charger-for-5-5-s-h/592609.html) I think they go for $20 or so on amazon? but it works GREAT! a lil odd to keep in your pocket though.. lol, and theres a detachable usb cable u must also haul around

Has anyone received one of these yet? Interested in one, but want to know if it is any good...

Does anyone know if nfc works on this rom?....I remember seeing it under settings when I was using the inception rom but I was unable to activate it.
And if so where do I find it as it isn't under the wifi/data settings
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app
Afaik, the glide doesn't have an nfc chip. Although i'd be delighted to be wrong.
Yeah I believe it does.....it just wasn't able to be activated before but supposedly under ics its supposed to work...I just can't seem to find it anymore since I just flashed the new stock ics rom

The at&t and rogers glides are identical hardware. Wikipedia does not list the glide as having nfc and niether did a couple other spec lists that I encountered on my quick google. In this situation, i'd chalk it up to an oversight in the creation of inception. Once again, i'd love to be wrong though.
Weird because I saw it in a few places.....

So I got bored and picked up a cheap 3800mah battery of eBay for around $10. I wanted to get the laza one with nfc but it isn't available in Canada. Once been running the cheapie for a few days now. I no longer have to charge at work and after 9 hours of light use on the weekend I am down less than one quarter.
Biggest downside is the supplied back doors not quite fit right.

Just an update. Battery life is consistently good. I leave work without charging at around 50%. Previously if I didn't charge while at work I would be down to 10-15%. I can play a hell of a lot of minecraft these days days. The issues with the back turned out to be from some plastic flashing. I cleaned up the edge and it sits snugger than the original back. Not bad for under$10

Extended OEM battery for the T-mobile Galaxy Nexus works great on our phone in the original case too! NFC capable.
Oh I can defiantly agree with that statement with an astrix, the old back does fit but it takes some force to get it to stay completely sealed and after about 6mo I had to replace the back of the device because the clips that held it on no longer worked properly just an FYI.....

Just bought this battery. I've been using it about 3 days and followed battery calibration instructions. So far I'm really not that impressed by it. I've heard with extended batteries it takes a few days to settle in...

Has anyone found a protective cover that will fit the new case for the bigger battery. I always like to protect the phone just in case it is dropped!

The original optimus g doesn't have removable battery so it can't be for that.

Oh yeah haha, true...they probably just put the other carriers in there for the search engines haha
So if i am reading the specs right, they give you a full wrap TPU case instead of a modified back plate? (There goes wireless charging) I'd love to see tjis thing to see how thick it makes the phone. Its almost triple the capacity of the stock battery!!

Could probably move the wireless charging device into the back plate. I know people did it to the S3.

I don't think you get a traditional back plate on this thing, plus you will probably be too far from the phone itself for the contacts to touch.
Let us all know if and when they launch it and get brave enough to post pictures.
