Now we know what the holes in the back are for where some speculated it was for a flip-cover.

Actually a FAQ on HP's website said that the holes are for future accessories like a a flip cover. It's a shame I can't seem to find the link anymore.
In the iPAQ forum someone mentioned that it doesn't look well designed since it looks like it will cover the stylus, the speaker, and the soft reset hole. I think I see an even more glaring design flaw. How will a H2210 fit in its cradle with this monster attached?
Edit: I spelled monster wrong!  ops:

8O that's 4x the regular battery's capacity... that's well over 24 hours worth of mp3 playback, or enough juice to watch 3 or 4 movies in their entirety. Nice.

What's that indentation in its side for? It's on the wrong side to be a cut-out for the speaker.

I have too many questions on how this fits onto the unit to just pony-up the $129 yet. What does it add to the thickness of the unit? Can you still hear the interal speaker? Does it get in the way of the CF card, earphone of stylus access at all? I'd like to see a few photos of how it fits onto the unit. I really like the idea of 3600 mAH, but if I can't access the headphone jack, that would defeat the purpose.

My cradle is about twice as deep as my 2210. I'm guessing that's to accommodate this monster battery?
