The battery is not intended to be user replacable, but can be replaced by a service centre, or by yourself if you know enough about unclipping the case open and what you are doing to do so.

The battery is connected inside by 3 wires which have to be soldered to the motherboard if you do it yourself. Doing it oneself would, I expect, invalidate the warranty if that was still in effect.

That said I would think that the battery, unless some problem with it, may last the life of the reader (within reason) if it is similar to other consumer items with the battery not user replacable.
