Cost was us $17.99 including shipping by USPS. They told me i could send back the original battery to have it replaced but i did not want to go thru the hassel. Additionally the batter is holding a slight charge so my mother is able to use her Reader for several hours before the battery dies. I did not want to deprive her of it while waiting for the new battery to arrive in the mail.
I have bought 3 of the PP 5" (2 as gifts) and so far only the one device has had any issues.

Just a follow-up. Since replacing the battery in my mothers PP she has not had any more problems with it. It they start up again i will post to let you guys know.
Additionally the batteries can now be ordered from the astak web site. Robert provided the links on a separate post.
