I am surprised, although it seems I've seen lots of battery replacement threads on the Onyx forum. Ok, batteries are a hassle, but they are not particularly expensive either. Actually, I've never replaced a battery on anything. By the time the battery has swelled it's time to do a battery-ectomy and either use the device in fixed service with a wired power supply or to just use it occasionally for regression testing.

I've had my Poke3 for a year now and never intentionally charged it. By that I mean that I do enough development and syncing that I never even pay attention to charge level. I think it's a great device and I ignore most of the Onyx stuff.

Oh, and you're right. Start at the USB jack. The back cover actually has a slot there and it's easy.
