Notification message says Dell PDA backup battery critically

I received this message today on my Dell AXIM x51v. I'm guessing this
is an internal battery that keeps the clock etc. running if you take
out the main battery. Does anyone know if this battery is user
replaceable, and if so how one replaces it?

Thanks,

Norm

Thanks for the link Ed, sure seems like a lot of trouble to replace,
athough I'll have to have a go. Lots of people seem to have this
problem, so I'm in good company.

Thanks again,
