Yes, it's true...Lithium Ion batteries like the ones in the D2 don't like being run down (say to 5%/10%) repeatedly...much happier (and longer battery life over the long term) if you stop near 30% or so.

IMO, the extended battery is a better investment than a second battery.

I agree w/want a droid.
I've had my extended battery for 2 weeks.
Used it out of the box until fully discharged then fully charged it overnight.
Since, with moderate to heavy daily use it has never gone below 30%. I do plug it into car charger for the 30 minute drive home while I'm talking the entire time to my managers.
Then at night, into the media docking station for a full charge.
Have never used the backup battery!

I don't believe in 3rd party shotty batteries from amazon either. I say make sure they are legitimate products.
But even draining your battery to 5 percent should be avoided as much as possible. Obviously the battery exists to serve you but try to keep it from going too low whenever possible.
