        Have you, if I may ask, used these batteries? The reason I ask is
that they don't mention the FMR or V2, but only the Video, MM, and Gmini

we really need a faq for the FMR/V2 batteries. I think i'll start compiling
one.

        Thank you, Scott. I asked for this before and it's a great idea.
Here are a base of questions for it. First, how long does it take the li-ion
battery to charge, and how long does it play for generally? What is the
Amperage on the battery?
        Secondly, I know it takes longer to charge the battery via USB, but
how much longer? Is it normal/desirable to have the drive constantly
spinning when the unit is on USB?
        Thirdly, is there anything I can do to prevent the swelling and
breakage people have reported with this battery?
        Aman
