Contacted photovillage after the battery died after 8 frames on continuous
mode.  Its not holding a charge. Rich got back to me within 10 minutes and
said he'll get right on a battery replacement.

I figured I'd deplete and charge it a few times to see if I can bring it
back, but I'll get a new one regardless. Ugh, I'm going to be a brute all
weekend waiting I'm afraid.

Cheers to Photovillage's service.
