Mugen has been GREAT! I have both of their batteries for the X5, a 2000 that is basically the same form factor as the standard 1400 Dell and the whopping 3800(!) extended battery. I tried to run that one down (per Mugen's instructions) when I first got it and it took forever! Price-wise the standard and extended for Mugen both came in lower in price than the Dell counterpart, so it was a win-win.
I plan to get a Mugen "standard" (which I'm hoping for 1800) AND extended once they are available for the X50.
As far as the size (back to regular Dell batteries) for the extended battery, there has been word in other posts that people have been told the extended battery will come with it's own cover (whether attached to the battery or not is unclear) since it will stick out some from the back of the X50. How much remains to be seen.
