Toshiba battery recall too

Seems the recall ranks are growing. Toshiba has announced a recall of some of it's laptop batteries too. This link says the Toshiba recall is not for the exploding issue like Dell but is for some batteries that just stop charging.

Being the owner of a Toshiba laptop (and the fact that it is my first ever laptop) I have been watching these revelations with great interest, I only hope it is not heat related, it gets quite hot down here in the Caribbean
Thanks for the heads up Panama Red.
I wonder how long it will be before James Socketlover and his bunch of legal bandits get a law suit advert on the TV for this one.
