Oh my. Yes they do. Here is a list of the 3527 SIM-based palm devices with a replaceable battery ( idBatRemovable=1 ) marketed in the last decade ( nYearMin=2010 ).

Oh my. «Time it dies» can be 10 hours. And, who knows, maybe 10 years before another device worth buying is marketed (I am sticking with a 2014 one).
The same scarcity of adequate offer can be valid for other mobile reading devices - EPD based, Si-OLED etc.
