How is this powered? Regular batteries, disposable?

It has its own built in rechargable battery and comes with a connector cord that you can use with the Nook charger when you need to charge it. It takes 3 or 4 hours to charge.

It is charged as you would charge a cell phone. Didn't come with the charger, mind you, I just used an old one from a "go" phone. A light goes on while it charges, make sure you have the keyboard off when not using it.

it has an internal battery - it comes with the cord which you connect the keyboard to a standard household outlet. basically the same as charging a cell phone. in fact, many cell phone cables will work with it also. i've plugged mine into the same car charger cord i use for my cell to enable charging while i drive. so far, i've found that the battery holds power for much longer than i'd expected before needing to be recharged. hope this makes a little bit of sense - i'm not much of an electronic whiz so my wording is not very "techy" : (

Unfortunately, my keyboard died :( It is powered by batteries and charged like a phone.

Unit is strictly battery powered. It uses size AA batteries. For as much as I use mine, I judge the battery life to be pretty darned good.

Disposable? It has it's own battery (made to fit) I guess you can, but why would you want to do that? Buy the charger too and you're set! : )

It can use batteries or be plugged in, it comes with a power converter to plug it into a wall.

It is powered by an included wall wart plug. It runs on a lithium battery (internal) for hours when not plugged in.

They are rechargeable batteries, like in a cell phone. It comes with a cord you plug in to charge it. Depending on usage, it'll last a couple days on a charge if used lightly. I use mine as an e-reader so it stays plugged in next to my bed most of the time.

Its powered by the kind of battery you will never change because this item will stop working within a week. Used this for 3 days approx 5 minutes of talk time

powered by batteries - but mine came with dead, OLD and corroded batteries already installed, only worked a few times and died

It does not take batteries. Plug it in after use and that recharges the built in battery. I've had mine about 10 months and it will no longer hold a charge longer than a few seconds! Also it will only run off the battery power! I hoped I could just plug it in and use it that way but it stops charging and uses the battery that won't charge so it is useless without a working battery!

Plugs in and takes batteries. I guess you could use rechargeable batteries, but unit will not charge them.

It looks like the batteries have to be removed to be charged (which makes me question why it's called 'rechargeable'?) The plug cord is removable and works fine - but only to power the unit directly. (as I understand it)

It is powered off the USB bus. I use an adapter plugged into 110 volts to insure constant adequate power (because some USBs have more power than others).

It is battery powered only. It seems to use little battery power, I'm still using the original batteries I installed.

The one I purchased doesn't have a recharging option at all. It's battery powered. You simply replace the batteries when they run out. Obviously you could use rechargeable batteries. But it's not a rechargeable unit.

It uses one 9-volt battery. I have used both disposable and rechargeable, both without any issues.
