Yes, it does add bulk to the iPAQ with the extended battery, but I find it easier to hold.

There are small things that you could do to improve that battery life. On my 2215 (which has a 900mAh) battery, I can get between 5 to 7 hours depending on my usage without charging. I have done things like turning off incoming beams so that my IR port is not always active. I have also tweaked my backlight settings on battery to the most dimmest setting possible while still being comfortable to view and read. I have also tweaked my standby settings (not sure if this is on the 4155). The Lith-ION batteries behave better when fully charged so I keep my 2215 on the charger whenever I can. I also turn off my backlight automatically if idle for 3 minutes. I keep my BT radio off at all times until I need it.
This seems to work well for me and my usage. I also use OC software to autoscale my processor for heavy gaming and watching movies. For the most part if I underclock my processor then that also saves some battery life.
