Deal Extreme genuine Nokia batteries - anyone tried them ?

Noticed that Deal Extreme are advertising genuine (as opposed to compatible) Nokia batteries now.

They're much more expensive than the knock offs - about $20 for some models.

Are they worth the difference in price vs the plain old cheapo "compatibles" ?

Congratulations on the BA modship by the way !

They seem to fit a little better, i find the non branded ones often slightly on the big side. Regarding the life of the battery, they still wont be as good as the official ones. I still use them as backup often. Not sure if thats any help to you
