At least the Gen3 has a user-replacable battery, and replacement batteries are pretty inexpensive. We're in a much better position than our friends with a Sony or an iLiad. I think the Kindle has a user-replaceable battery, too.

No, it has a fixed amount of charge cycles. And I saw claim that topping it up does not count a one charge cycle but just counts for the part of a cycle it corresponds to.
