I agree with most people here, as long as it stays under 400g, get the best and most commonly found battery.

Making the battery easily replaceable would be nice.

And if someone need extreme uptime, there are things like this External Battery Pack.

Less than 400g is fine. The longer the run time the better for me (i fly alot!)

We have decided to stick to 27mm and a custom battery size to use every last mm of space, the battery will be ~4000mah.

According to our calculations it should work for up to 100 hours(!) playing mp3s. We won't know about using powerful apps until we do some further tests, but we are aiming for that magic 10 hours. It should easily get 10+ hours running recompiled GP2X apps.

Battery has been confirmed by the Main Man, so before this topic starts to go off-topic...
