That's pretty good, actually.  Not so long ago the state of the art
was that an LiON battery is only good for about 200-250 complete
charge/discharge cycles.  Given that a replacement battery is around
$200 to $250, I treat batteries as consumables, with each
charge/discharge cycle costing approximately a dollar.  Which is why
I'm pretty anal about trying to run off of AC mains whenever possible,
and only running off the battery when absolutely necessary.
