Have you ever been on the way to an important event and had your phone battery ‘poop out’ on you? I’ve had this happen on multiple occasions, feeling completely lost without the connection of my cell phone. The battery life on the iPhone annoys me BEYOND BELIEF! I’m on my phone all day— out and about, emailing, surfing the web, etc.  So, I decided to look for a better source. I’ve just stumbled upon a great alternative to the debacle of ‘dead phone syndrome’, it’s the Backup Battery for iPhone / iPod from RichardSolo.com. The lithium ion battery is fully rechargeable (thank goodness- I hate using AA batteries, as they contribute to our ever depleting environment). Also, you can snap the iPhone and battery together, enabling you to charge them both with the included charger. The casing is scratch proof and the battery can be recharged over several years without developing “memory”. My anxiety has now finally lifted after finding this necessary accessory for my beloved Mr. iPhone.
