When the iPhone came out there was talk of do-it yourself iPhone battery replacements, and now we’ve actually seen one. This do-it-yourself will cost you a mere $25, but also requires the use of a soldering iron, pry-tool , and scissors, which just may end with you and a bricked iPhone. If you want to give it a shot, pick up a kit here.

Why pay to have your iPhone battery replaced and worry with the hassle of a loner phone  when you can replace it yourself? A Chinese company has come up with their own iPhone battery replacement kit you can get for the blowout (read: probably going to explode) price of $20. The kit comes with a shiv, screwdriver, battery, and instruction manual.

iPhone battery life 50% of Apple's estimate?
Added on 2007-07-01 23:06:00

We're still running the iPhone through all the tests possible (and you thought the weekend was for sleep, pshaw) and have some pretty big results thus far: looks like the iPhone didn't get all the battery life Apple had estimated.  We'd been hearing people having battery life problems in an informal dialog, but now some of our test results show the iPhone gets almost half of Apple's eight hours of promised talk time per charge.  We're still working to verify the results and finish some of our other crazy tests, but we'll keep you tested as we keep going.  We've got more than one phone, so after we run our initial tests, we'll run them again and again with different phones.
