Acer batteries could burst into flame

Posted by RichardThurston

Oh Sony. As if Dell, Lenovo, Apple and Toshiba having to recall its batteries wasn't bad enough, now Acer has done the same.

The Taiwanese manufacturer said yesterday it was recalling 27,000 Sony batteries becasue they might shortcircuit and burst into flames.

Anyone who bought an Acer TravelMate notebook between May 2004 and November 2006 ought to read this.
