Hello, )\/(ark.   
      
    ml> the user needs to be trained in the special care and needs of   
    ml> batteries... that battery is replacable, isn't it?   
      
   	I gave up on teaching the user, the proper care of her battery. It is just   
   not "ingrained" into her intellect.   
      
    ml> if yes, i'd get two and swap them when the one being used is completely   
   depleted... battery   
    ml> conditioning is a necessary skill that all too many don't know or   
    ml> learn... i've seen way too many devices thrown away because they didn't   
    ml> take care of the battery or even think to replace it... instead they'd   
    ml> rather spend several hundred $$$ for a new device    
      
   	This might be the coming end result, )\/(ark. Sad, as she does have fun with   
   this toy, as Tom said. We shall face the situation when really against that   
   wall, no issue but to get a store to replace the battery I got a new cell for   
   her G4 a few years ago but the Air is soldered in, what a decision in the   
   manufacturing process.
