"DALLAS Aug 15, 2006 (AP)— Dell Inc.'s record-setting recall of 4.1 million notebook computer batteries raised safety concerns about the power source of countless electronic devices, but experts said the problem appears to stem from flaws in the production of the laptop batteries, not the underlying technology." |

I just saw it on Attack of the Show, they showed some of the pics form the Japanese conference incident. I guess my timing on putting this article up is pretty good though I saw the THG incident article weeks ago.

Edit: Seems someone already posted the recall

From what I understand the problem seems to be in the lithium battery itself. What do you guys think of that?
