I bought an old iPod Video on ebay and replaced the battery, and only later did I learn that the battery 'wasn't user replaceable.'
Usually when the phrase "user replaceable battery" is in the description, my assumption is something with an accessible battery door...or at the very least a back panel that doesn't require lock-picking tools to gain access. Not that I'm having any battery issues with the Kobo (or any of my other digital toys) yet, just defining terms.
