For a long while I noticed that my PRS-T1 had very little battery life. I could not really pinpoint it to a percentage, but the battery seemed to be empty after a hundered pages at most. I never noticed any bars missing in battery meter, but suddendly the device is out of power.

After rooting the device and installing another battery meter it displayed 70% when it powered off.

Weird, isn't it? Can I assume that the battery is "nearly dead" and should be replaced? The device is a bit over two years old.
