Motorola V171 batteries USA<>Europe

| Hi!
I bought two batteries to my cell phone Motorola V171 (bought in Spain) from
a USA store at Ebay and the electric contacts are physically incompatibles.
Motorola V171 have diferent batteries in USA and Europe? The two batteries
have the inscription "FOR MOT V300/600" and the electrical contacts are at
the centre and not at one side like original battery in my cell phone.
Thanks

Have not ever known Motorola phones to use different battery form factors
for the same model in different marketing regions.
More likely this is the case of an eBay seller who is ignorant, careless,
or both ... and simply does not know what he is selling. He probably
thinks all Vxxx phones use the same batteries, and writes his ads
accordingly.

Yes, I allready contacted "Motorola Spain" and they confirm I have the wrong
batteries. Ebay seller send me V300/600 batteries. :-(
