Any old news about this I haven't seen?

Pretty sure my battery is only getting 4-5 days, now, so its either replace the battery or replace the reader.

Managed to struggle thru a week of Boy Scout Camp - as an adult leader - by using my iPad, which is supposed to be for night reading purposes only.

Didn't take my PPro charger, or even USB cable, because I charged it before leaving on Sunday. Died on Wednesday.
Astak 'had' batteries for about $20.

Who knows what they have now. Last time I called at 10:30 PST, the EZReader support person was not in (yet).
I wanted a new cover (clip broke) and a spare battery (mine drops to 3 bars after 3 days of high reading (lots of pages) use).
Lbook V5 uses the same battery and I think they now have a US outlet.
