CrunchGear did a tear down of Kindle 2 which is probably similar to the DX and says the battery looks like it's pretty easy to replace yourself if the time comes.

Most interestingly the battery is actually easy to find and attack, given enough patience. Because this is basically a press-fit case, you need to use annoying iPod opening tools which will definitely void your warranty. However, it does mean you could potentially bybass Amazon’s $60 battery replacement fee if you were so inclined.

The $109
2 year extended warranty (available in the U.S. only) includes battery replacement.

I'd probably go for the self-install.
