Yet Another Laptop Battery Recall (Toshiba)

If you have a Toshiba laptop made between March and May this year. You may need to change the battery. They are recalling 340,000 batteries in their Dynabook and Satellite machines.

Read more here.

I've checked their website, and cant see any page to check your laptop out yet.

I've got to say, this seems to be a too common occurence nowadays. Apple (1.8 million batteries (July), Dell (4.1 million) batteries (August).

What's going on? Maybe they should speak to Duracell (I haven't seen any recall from them recently)..........lol
