Hi Sandy,

They do die very quickly. A hundred hours, eh... What were you
listening to?
I listen mainly to audio files - music, podcasts, things like that.

Just wanted to report on my exerience to date using Energizer lithium batteries in the Book Port:
They seem to last forever (100 hours?), and then die REALLY abruptly. Unlike alkalines, NiMH or even NiCads, lithium batteries don't seem to give users any advance warning that the batteries are nearing the end of their useful life.
I was listening to an MP3 this morning, and the battery status said "100%". In the middle of the song, the song was interrupted by the Book Port warning me to replace the batteries.
My best all-round experience has been with Sanyo 2500 mAh NiMH batteries, since there's a nice combination of longevity and environmental friendliness, but you can't beat lithium for sheer longevity.

you will find me when you seek me. 14I will be found by you," says the LORD...
