We are talking of 9,62 years of lifetime, and by then the Cybook would be death of natural causes, or just completely obsolete, or…

For me, battery = no worry!
Drained my battery down to 10% before it needed recharging today! Woo-Hoo! Only took me three months to get it tuned in.

I'm still not sure that I'll ever need a replacement battery, but now that I know I can order a replacement direct from HECELL, I'm not worried at all. I figure in the next month I'll get the exact HECELL catalog number and order two spares (After all, they're cheaper than Bookeen has them.).
