To be honest, given the age of the 950 and the fact that there is no known source of batteries other than Sony at somewhere around $80, it's not worth it. The chances are that the battery is going to not hold a charge very well. I would suggest you look for a Reader with a larger (larger than 6") screen such as the Kobo Aura H2O or the Onyx Boox T68. Both have a 6.8" screen and you can get more text on screen then a 950 since the 950 is just a taller 6" screen and the 6.8" screen is wider as well. Plus, the 6.8" screen is higher resolution so you get clearer sharper text.
