I have no explanation that it DIED while at 70%.

Happened today for the first time, never before. Most befuddled.
Hey precisely this happened to me yesterday (also with FW 708)... battery was at 70%, but actually it was on 70% for some days already, so maybe the prtiodic battery status checks died at some time. Then yesterday the Cybook froze at startup, and the reset button didn't work... just as if the battery was down. I thought strange, it just was at 70% before. But I did connect power for a minute (a shame btw that you can't read while charging), and then it came up fine, showing still 70% though (should be at most 10% if it was really down before). After a complete recharge it's now again on 100%.
