What you describe is the (normal) loss of storage capacity of a Li-Ion battery over its useful lifetime.
I recommend you start shopping for a replacement battery **NOW** before it self destroys its flash chips (the DX has more than one).

I did replace the battery after the original battery started running out quickly (with this one

Currently it drains even when turned off, and only lasts 2-3 hours from full charge with wireless on (I use Amazon shell to browse), so I have to keep Kindle plugged in constantly.
