Comment: I purchased a replacement battery because I wanted on on hand. I haven't tried it yet as I still have no need. Thanks again.

Comment: The spare battery works as advertised. I didn't want a Kindle that could die because the one battery for it expired.

Comment: I love my Kindle and was looking forward to taking it with me out of town when unexpectedly as I was reading, the pages no longer turned and it just froze. I tried to charge it but it still would not function. Having had it only a couple of months, I couldn't understand what was wrong. Then I realized from reading the comments from other users that it was the battery. I hurried to order a new one but got a message that they were out of stock. This is really a let down. Surely they will not allow poor battery performance to undermine an otherwise very good product. I have no idea when I will receive the new battery they said they would send an e-mail when it is available.

Summary: works fine for me

Comment: i received my kindle 1/08, read more than 2 hours a day consistently, & turn on the wireless function daily for a minute or so to download my NY times latest news blog & occasionally to look up a book. it was time to replace my battery by the end of 10/08. that seems reasonable to me.

Summary: Battery Life Less
Date: 2008-11-16 -
Comment: Since I travel extensively with my Kindle, I thought I should have a replacement battery. Unfortunately, the replacement does not seem to have as much stamina as the original. I recharge my Kindle once a week, and have had it for 7 months, but I when I use the replacement battery, I have to recharge every 4 days. Disappointing.
The good news, however, is that the price is very good, so it won't break the bank to replace it often if needed.
