Theoretically such batteries are good for about 300 recharges, though your mileage may vary. I've got cellphone batteries which have done much better than that, though of course their capacity decreases markedly.

Apparently the worst you can do with the current generation of batteries is:
(a) leave them absolutely fully charged or
(b) discharge them to absolute rock-bottom (or of course leave them that way).
