Probably not the best turn of events months before they launch their new system.

Does anyone know what other laptop makers use those sony cells?

I believe that Apple has bad luck with battery or something. They've recalled their batteries before and I think that was with another manufacturer, hence the little advisory at the bottom of their site.

I think the battery recall this time has more to do with their joining with Dell and Lenovo to standardize laptop batteries more than it has to do with worries over how their batteries are performing. Especially considering that it's been a while since Powerbook or iBook's have gotten any sort of attention.
