The Kindle Keyboard battery seems easily removable to me, especially for something you have to do only once every few years. There's no harm in carefully prying open the case, seeing what I mean, and then snapping it closed. I think it's the same for all the Kindle's except for the entry level non-touch, which has a glued-in battery.
Unfortunately you are probably right on the gray scale.

However you misunderstand the "removable battery" option. I mean a recess where there are 2 or 3 rechargeable or alkaline batteries and you only have to depress a latch to pop the top up and switch batteries. (For those places where a wall or car charger aren't usable.)
This would make it more portable.
