i've had my SONY Touch PRS-650 for about 5 years now (which as i understand it, is the average life of the battery) and now it's starting to act up. i've left it to charge overnight and it still isn't fully charged and the battery drops pretty fast, within about 4 hours of constant use. are these signs of the battery dying? and if so, are there any ways to replace the battery?

another issue is, i was trying to add more books using calibre, but the screen never changes to show the USB connected screen. it just shows that it's charging. does anyone know why? this is the first time it's ever done this. i've rebooted and reconnected, but still the same thing.
