I do top off the battery every month or so, but increasingly when I go to do it, it's at the "low battery" screen. It always starts charging immediately once I plug it in, and charges to full in a few hours, but it now reaches the "low battery" screen after about 3 weeks when not in use.
That is worse than I thought. If the battery drains that fast when not in use then it is definitely on its way out.

Given the uncertainty about the future utility of the device, I personally would still hold off on updating the battery. Others might disagree.
