Keep in mind that buying a "new" battery may not result in you receiving a battery that is significantly younger than the one that came with your device. The clock is ticking on these batteries the minute they're produced. So unless new DX batteries are a hot commodity, an OEM replacement may just be as old (and unable to hold a charge) as the one that came with the device. It may have been sitting on a shelf degrading for all these years until you bought it "new."
I'd look into a third-party battery replacement, myself (if such a thing exists).
