Default Lithium Polymer lifespan

My older 3835 (approaching 2 years) is starting to show some odd battery issues. I can fully charge it and have the power level drop to 75% within a minute of taking it off the cradle, but not always. I can be reading an eBook for a half hour and lose 20% of my charge, but not always. Its just not consistant. Whats the approximate lifespan of the Lithium Polymer battery? Can I expect more and more oddities as the battery gets older?

On the bright side, I have a 3 year extended warranty from Best Buy on this device. If the battery falls short of 3 years, I can get a brand-new PDA out of this.
