The PW2 batter has the same part number, and looks intact (no internal air pressure). And it measures 3.7V across the (+) and (-) terminals. Battery transplant in progress...

PW3 now booting on PW2 battery. Airplane mode -- oh... Cannot get to settings until registered, but need wifi in settings to register. Time to read the included manuals?

Plugging in USB cable to PC. USB drive mode works! The drive only has a documents folder though -- perhaps it needs a factory reset.

However, the good news is that the PW3 seems okay so far with a good battery installed. The PW2 has more serious issues, considering that it HAD a good batter and was totally dead.
