Feel free to try it, and let me know the results :P Just kidding, it seems logical that these batteries don't have the capacity declared, as they are five times cheaper than original batteries and claim to have doubled performance... I was hoping I'm wrong, but as everyone thinks the same I'd rather get a second FIC battery. Cheers, Daniel -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
