Can you believe this?
Now Toshiba is recalling 340,000 batteries from their notebook computers that were made by (who else!) Sony 
apparently because of problems with recharging them.
Interestingly, this problem is not directly related to the one behind last month's recalls by Dell and Apple that cited concerns the batteries could overheat and catch fire. This time, the batteries sometimes stop recharging or simply run out of power; no injuries have been reported.
Hey, let's do the numbers:
- Dell -- 4.1 million faulty batteries
- Apple -- 1.8 million
- Toshiba -- 340,000
(If we graph this numbers, does this indicate a downward trend in battery problems?)
The Toshiba recall involves batteries for Dynabook and Satellite models made from March through May; they will be replaced for free.

Sony cumulates the bad news. The PS3 being delayed was the biggest one but this is not good for Thosiba as well.
THERE IS A COMPLETELY SAFE LAPTOP BATTERY TECHNOLOGY
The Li-Fiber cell is completely safe and with $1 million the company can produce enough cells to prove that it has a laptop battery that is not only completely safe but also outperforms all existing laptop batteries. The 2006 massive recall by DELL, Apple, IBM, Toshiba and Lenovo of over 7 million notebook computer batteries made by Sony would be a thing of the past. Contact me Edward Anderson at TRU Group Inc if you have $1 million to invest.
