    I ordered one from Amazon 2 months ago for my 9360, a different brand though.
    Make sure it's one that has the nfc antenna tabs on the rear battery door. If nfc is not your cup of tea then no worries. The one I ordered has the nfc antenna and is a higher capacity 2200mah for $19, than the one you have linked to you may wanna check out Amazon for a better deal.
    Keep in mind every time you use the extended capacity battery it has to be mated with your original battery, that means having to carry around the little mating device ( pictured ) a lot of times. It'll take about 4 to 5 mating cycles before you no longer have to carry the mating device. You wont be able to use a case while using the ext cap battery.

    Reliability wise, mine is 3.7VDC 2200mAH and with the heaviest use last about 3 days.
    It also means carrying around an extra battery door since both batteries are different physical sizes. Other than that I've not had any issues with my ext cap battery.

    The mating or recoding procedure is when you place both batteries ( pictured in the last photo ) together in the square device a green light comes on and the battery will now work in you phone. If this is not done and the battery is used in the phone you'll get a red X on the screen. Just make sure as soon as you mate or recode the new battery and place it in the phone to turn the phone off and charge the battery before use.

    @93aero can you post the pics of this battery installed in your phone and side view also to exactly gauge the thickness which will be added after installation of the new battery?

    Sure, here a couple of side views with and without the back cover. The thickness is 5 mm. The third pic is a side by side comparison of the 2 back covers. The last pic is the 9360 with its original battery and cover.

    The small piece you see in the last pic is just a stick on jewel a friend placed there.

    Added photos.

    Sure here are a few pics, hope this helps. The ext cap battery adds 5 mm of thickness.

    The third pic is a side by side comparison of both covers.

    The last pic is of the original cover, the little blip on the back is just a jewel a friend added for bling.

    Has anyone purchased from this site: 1500mAh Battery for BlackBerry Curve 9350/9360/9370 - Tmart.com ?

    I am hoping that shop.crackberry.com would have a seidio battery for the 9360 model soon.

    Thanks.
