Coby MID7024: Extremely Inaccurate Battery

I recently got a Coby Kyros MID7024 and love it, minus one thing: The battery indicator is incredibly inaccurate. I usually manage to get around 6 hours of battery life, but only with a lot of annoyance. First, according to battery apps and everything on the system, the battery seems to drain quickly (but really doesn't) to the 15% range (in around 1-2 hours). It then sticks around 15% for another 2-3 hours, resulting in nonstop popups about the low battery (which makes getting anything done close to impossible). Finally, it is "running on empty" for another two hours. This all happens pretty consistently, and I was wondering if there was a way this could be fixed.
