    surely there should be tighter regulation over these batteries what with sony's blowing up and dells (if i recall) and also witht eh recent news of dell shipping inadequate PSU's with their equipment

    Wow. With batteries like these im surprised terrorists keep trying to smuggle random explosives onto planes. Just book business class and buy Packard Bell.
