Which Iphone battery backup / Mili powerskin solution for 3GS

As I guess most iphone owners know the battery life is crap. Most days I get to charge a couple of times a day, in work / car / overnight. but there's times when thats not an option so I'm looking for a backup plan.

Ideally I want something that will still let me use the phone, like the powerskin, but that appears to add bulk, whereas the battery packs tend to hang out the bottom.

so what do you forumites use and recommend?

I bought a batterycase from My Memory, was about £20 at the time. Same rating of battery as in the 3G, so works ok.

I'll take a look at that thanks. When In use how much bulk does it add?

Well its designed to replace a case, so its not too bad. But it is a bit chunky.

But then if the battery is going to run out, you don't have that much choice!
