One of the downsides to the original iPhone is that you couldn't replace the battery yourself. Sure, you could take it to your local Apple store and they would do it pretty quickly for a fee, but we like the ability to do things ourselves. Well it seems that you may actually be able to do just that with your shiny new iPhone 3G.
The key word is “may”. The key difference between the original iPhone and the 3G's batteries is that the original was soldered in. The new 3G battery is not, which means it may be possible to replace it yourself. Of course you have to actually get ahold of the battery.

Cool – i hope it is
Sure the battery on iPhone 3G is not that great, but what can we do? We want small size phones, powerful features and lengthy battery life.
Just get a backup battery. I got mine from iPhoneck brands. Their new 3G backup battery is probably one of the better looking products in the market. Their website is http://www.iphoneck.com
