I have a new 64g PB which I will be giving to my niece in the Philippines next time I travel there, sometime in the New Year. It has been fully charged and all available updates have been installed. Should I
(a) Keep on Standbye and recharge every few days
(b) Shut down and recharge once per week
(c) Shut down and reboot just before I go.

Or (d) leave it with me and I'll keep it safe for you.

Turn it off. Before you leave boot it up and charge it. When you buy a new PB it's off, and still has some battery life left.

Charge it and turn it off.

Sounds good - that's what I'll do. Thanks for the help.

Charge to about 50% according to some recommendations. Turn ooff completely. Store at cool ambient certainly not in any place where condensation can occur. If for a very long time it could be put in a sealed bag with moisture adsorbent pack.

Just before you go, turn it on, charge it fully and install the BB10 update. (It could happen.)
