If I bought one of these I'd have to save up in advance to replace battery, and why wouldn't I get back my original kindle if I sent it to Amazon to replace the battery?
Although I'm not sure how long the battery will last altogether (as I've only had mine for a few weeks and it might also depend on usage) I can say I fully charged my Kindle 2 10 days ago and it still has plenty of juice left in it - not even half-way on the charge. It seems to dspend on if you keep the wireless option on or off. I opt to have it off unless I am ordering a book. I ordered several book samples (and received full chapters of about 15 books), turned off the wireless, read through several of the samples, turned the wireless on, ordered my book (took about 5 seconds) and then turned the wireless off again.
