They said the glue lost its adhesive strength, which meant that the pads came off and sticky glue got everywhere.

Have any of you experienced this problem? The only thing that's keeping me from picking one of these up is the thought of having to scrape adhesive off of my 3G S.
I read a number of those posts on Amazon. It concerned me enough that I will continue to look for another option.

I had mine before my iPhone 3GS came in.

Its OK-
I like the amount of battery life I can get. I like the way it looks, but of course an iPhone out of the case looks better.

I use my Juice Pack Air when I know I am going to need the battery. If I am home relaxing, my iphone isn't in it.

I bought the white Mophie Airjuice pack and returned in 3 days...

Pros: Adds life to battery for all your heavy users
Nice style

Cons: Heavy, Bulky
Very long time to charge
Micro USB is a bad idea
No frontal protection for OLED screen (no lip)
EXPENSIVE $$$ !!;(

I'd get one of those addon batteries instead of a battery+case if I were you. Those cases make your phone ugly, heavy and fat.
Get something like this;
3G JUICE : portable battery for your new 3G iPhone / iPod -Battery Extender with 1800 mAh of power

Mag,

If someone just needed to charge those are fine, but I'll need to charge and put it in my pocket. That's not going to happen with that 3G Juice. I'd also worry about something literally hanging from the connector like that. Would make me nervous to have to try to hold that AND the iPhone trying to use it.

I assumed there's always a few moments during the day where you have your iPhone laying on your desk, in your car, in your backpack, or something like that.

Post Juice Pack Air vs. Juice Pack

Any thoughts on the comparison between the Juice Pack Air and the Juice Pack? I love the texture of the Juice Pack but it adds so much weight. It's larger and heavier than the Air however, it gives you more time and a great backing.

Thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mara
