malware · Oct 15, 2006, 04:37 PM

The Sony battery recalls continue as Sharp is joining the fray by recalling 28,000 batteries while Fujitsu has recalled an additional 51,000 batteries. Fujitsu had already announced last week that it would recall 287,000 units. These latest recalls bring the number of Sony batteries recalled to more than 7.7 million.

Whoever was in charge of the Sony battery department is going to be in one deep pile of sh*t at the moment, I know that much!

I heard also that some of these bad batteries will be replacing dynomite for explosives.

Apparently, they were manufactured in North Korea, and they want them back for military purposes! ;-)

The overheating issues on the PS3 might lead to the same effect... we're just being used as guinea-pigs to test next gen secret explosives!
