Help Toshiba AT305 +2 months battery dies fast

Just 2 months from Frys, new Toshiba AT300 / AT305, Excite 10, 32MB, Normal battery charging, 4 - 10 hours at night when low.

Problem just started last 36 hours.
  • Full charge at 6am, into the case, off to work,
  • 90 minutes later BATTERY DEAD.
  • Back into wall-wart (charger),
  • Fifteen minutes later LONG-HOLD on Power/Sleep button
  • REBOOTS, 10-15 minutes later in wall-wart shows full green bar, 100%, "0s on battery" NOT hours and minutes.
Assume bad power control or battery. Bought at Frys Elex, Oxnard, CA, product registered. About to leave states for vacation.
