The above page is dead but luckily, someone did their duty (http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=9553) and submitted it to http://www.archive.org/web.

Take away from the video:
1) 10 Year expected overall life for battery pack
2) 5 Years at 12,000 miles/year - 80% capacity remaining and
3) Nissan doesn't expect to replace the whole pack, just a few modules at hundreds of dollars per module rather than thousands for a whole pack
