It is my understanding that the battery does not lose efficiency from frequent charging. I tend to put it on the charger overnight whenever it shows 1/4 of the battery left. I also put it on the charger if I'm going to plug it into my computer to make sure it has enough of a charge when I put new books onto it. The formatting takes quite a bit of the battery power.
I have two readers -- the Sony and a Kindle -- and sometimes a couple of weeks will go by without me picking up my Sony. Unlike GraceKrispy, I find that my Sony runs all the way down when it's not being used. I don't have a memory stick or SD card in it, so I can't explain why the battery runs down as it does. But, when I'm using it, I can read for around 16 hours on a single battery charge.
