Both are Kyocera OEM and the specs are the same (1200 mAh). The ...37 is the one currently listed on Kyo's website.
Is there a difference? I should get my Kyo 7135 Monday so I can check which battery comes with it then. I'm seeing the ...02 battery on ebay for <$20 and the ...37 for ~$40.
Anyone know anything about this...before I get my spare battery?
I'm in the market for an additional battery myself. But I'm a little paranoid/concerned about the difference in prices ($10-20, $70) and how that effects the quality and reliability of the battery.
I'd be willing to spend $70 for the battery if it means it will be reliable. But if there's no difference, then I may as well save some money.

A lot of the batteries sold on ebay are bulk stock (no retail packaging). It is not uncommon for a new battery to have scuff marks on it
errr... aren't bulk-stock batteries at least wrapped in plastic of some sort? I can't envision them simply dumping bare batteries into a box. "Scuff" marks on the contacts would be a large tell.
