Dead Battery...or something else ?

Have a '99 9-3 Base, 5 speed. Right now the car sits in my driveway, dead as a door nail. It wouldn't let me lock it with the remote, because it knew the battery was dying...as soon as it locked it would pop open again...neat feature.
Anyway, this all started last Saturday when I went to start the car, and it wouldn't start. I jumped it, then drove it around for awhile, and it was fine. Started it several times over the next 2 days. Sounded like it wasn't starting quite right, though...started kind of hard.
Well, it sat in the driveway for the last week, and now...dead ! I am thinking it is the battery, however, I'm wondering if there is not some kind of short in the system that is draining the battery. It is only 3 years old, with 50K miles. Any thoughts ??
