[LUNI] FYI - Lenovo battery recall

[Mike Scott]

For any ThinkPad users out there...

On March 1, 2007, Lenovo voluntarily recalled approximately 208,000
9-cell lithium-ion batteries.
These batteries were manufactured for use with ThinkPad notebook
computers that shipped worldwide between November 2005 and February
2007. 

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission if the battery
in the laptop is struck forcefully on the corner, such as from a direct
fall to the ground, the battery pack can overheat and pose a fire hazard
to users. This is not an internal battery cell defect. 

Laptops affected:
•	ThinkPad R60 and R60e Series
•	ThinkPad T60 and T60p Series 
•	ThinkPad Z60m, Z61e, Z61m, and Z61p Series
