In case anyone is interested, I just ordered 2 minutes ago from Verizon's website. It was in stock. $49.99, free 2 day shipping with the cover included.
Thanks for the heads up. Back in March tech support told me I would be able to get 50% off an extended battery for the TB because of the battery drainage issues. They were out of stock when I had called to complain in March. The rep said he would have notes in my account and to call back when they're in. So, I just called and she found the notes. I'm getting one shipped to me and it's under $20. Should be at my house on Tuesday.
Glad you got it. I called Verizon a month ago or so to complain. Told them I wanted a free extended battery. They of course were out but gave me a $45 credit on my bill so I could buy my own. Been searching ever since.
