  Just read that Apple are recalling all Powerbook and Ibook batteries between 2002 and 2006… youch!

  Looks like its Sony’s problem to me. I believe Dell already did a recall for similar batteries.

  According to what I read it’s the 12 and 15″ models. Not the 17″. And yes, it’s the same battery situation as the Dells.

  Yup. Gotta send mine in. Still, my PB never blew up, and I now get a shiny new battery 😉
