Oh, just buy SGS2 and buy a Mugen battery for that. Then if you really are into reasonable challenges, port Meego to that SGS2.
And in the future, do not buy phones, like N9 or any Lumia, which have not easy-replacable battery and not easy back cover.
Marko Ahtisaari may think they are pretty when batteries are unreplacable and deep hidden, but they are not suitable for a heavy user.

Well if you don't ask then you will not know, thats how people learn, by asking and having ideas
It's not like Nokia would put some low capa battery into their device and would save 2 pennies per device. Of course there is max capa battery that fills the room that is avail in the device.
One can always hope that someone makes bigger cover, or you can drill hole to your cover and connect to power cables and glue bigger battery to back of the phone. Or you can make external batterypack that connects to micro-usb connection.

Other thing to wait for is when some company makes a XL battery and XL cover, this could be mugen or if you check DealExtreme and places like that, can be anybody.

The drill hole idea is interesting because I think a kill switch would do well on n9(for personal reasons) a tiny hole in the back. Kill switch. But gota think about it.

Why would you drill a hole in your phone to connect a power switch? Why not buy a development board if you need that?

Design is ~ok, as long as it doesn't harm fuctionality and usability like deeply integrated non-changeable and non-upgradable battery and backcovers do. Then those "girls" whine they have too small battery life, but it has to be superthin and "beautiful".
I hope Samsung never goes to that same trap where Nokia went.

So i will have to do a bit of thinking, How i would be able to join the converter cables, (Which don't seem that hard) without short circuiting the battery.
Thanks Man!
