Apple recalling Sony batteries.

MSNBC is reporting a recall of 1.8 million batteries because they can overheat and catch fire. Sound familiar? Damge control at sony must be going into overdrive.

    Sony made those batteries that Apple (and Dell) used. Not the ~4M that Dell used, but substantial.

    lol it serves Sony right for having some of the WORST customer service on the planet........

    I had a feeling that Sony would have some sort of battery recall a while ago because they have never mastered battery technology in anything they make............their batteries always die quick and dont have much life even new..............

     

    The worst part of all this is that Dell and Apple's reputations are more tarnished because the batteries are in their computers with their names on it and customer have to call Dell or Apple about the recall, so 5.8 million or more customers will think of them first then Sony regardless of how many times they hear who made the batteries..........

    I feel sorry for stockholders of all 3 companies for the time being...............

     

    AND THE APPLE RECALL HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH DELL.........lol
