[iBook] What battery life are you getting?

In that case, my guess is it's probably just coming toward the end of 
it's natural lifespan, measured in charge/discharge cycles. (My KeyLime 
iBook battery lasted about that long, as well, and I was always careful 
to fully charge and fully discharge it.)
