I changed one last year for someone - it's tedious work but not difficult.

There are ebay listing that offer the tools with the battery.

Having fixed a few iphones, I can tell you to pick from the listings that show the tools with stainless steel ends. The black tipped ones wear out very quickly - sometimes within the time it takes to undo a few screws.

You mean like this: http://bit.ly/QRz2Gk ?

What about this one with a 1600mAh battery?

I didn't realise you could get higher capacity batteries for it. I'd certainly be tempted.

Doing a little research shows the 1600mAh batteries can sometimes be 1200mAh ones disguised with a sticker!

Anyway going for the 1200mAh battery and see what happens.
