My understanding is that the battery is a Lithium one and cannot be
recharged. I think you will need to talk to AT&T about how to go
about having it replaced.
You may just want to leave your machine on rather than having to always
set the time. Mine has been on almost continuously for a year and a
half (yes, the battery is dead, too). -dave
