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.

It's hard to pin it down to a certainty as Sony's software seems to be terrible at judging the battery accurately.
Ideally I'd tell you to completely drain the battery before recharging it from a mains charger and see if that helped but it's that hard to drain an ereader especially one turning itself off so early you may be better off just buying another reader.
