I just downloaded an app called coconutbattery.. and it says that my battery is at 85% and has 140 cycles... :S is this info correct?... and is it normal to be like this? wow because it has only been 4 months and i'm noticing also that the battery isn't lasting as long as it used it.

As the battery ages it will begin to loose it's ability to hold a charge, just like any other rechargable battery. Does it say 100% at the top? or does it max out at 85%? If it maxes out at 85% and is only 4 months old, then you should get a replacement from apple because the battery is faulty.

Dumb question but did you try re-calibrating the battery to see if that resets it?

How do you do that?

no it charges completely up until 100% but sometimes it only goes to 97 or 98 %
