iPWR has introduced its new iPWR SuperPack external battery for the iTouch & iPhone as you see above. Guaranteed to be compatible with both iPhone & iTouch, the iPWR SuperPack is a dock-connecting battery pack featuring a 1800 mAh lithium-polymer battery – which according to the company – provides up to 40 additional hours of music, up to seven hours of additional talk time, 10 hours of additional video, or ten additional hours of Internet access on an iPhone 3G. Other features include a weight of 1.5 oz. mini-USB recharging, and an included top cover which protects the dock connector when not in use. The iPWR SuperPack is available now in white or black and sells for $60.

I have a gut feeling that it is very fragile. Being held in place by just a dock connector. Not a good idea. They shouldve implemented some kind of grip or something that would stick to the phone. Also wheres the design team??? Did they forget the iphone has a speaker and mic at the bottom of the phone? They completely covered it…

You're right funklee. One wrong flick of the wrist could send the pack flying. I'm sure they left some kind of room for the mic and speaker at the bottom where it's connected though. I'm gonna look into it.

I guess the SuperPack is suppose to make a canyon effect on the speaker to amplify it or something. If it doesn't, then they seriously need to remodel this thing.

It works better if the device is not being shaken and beaten like a pinata rather than if you are rock climbing or wrestling with it.. It is fine if you are running or jogging with it, and even if you are doing a workout at times. The button placement is weak, but the solutions to put the battery along the back of the device means skins and protectors are out. So, it will be a couple generations before a solid solution is found for mobile battery charger placement and design to address this specific issue.
