Japan Gov't Reports Sony Battery Fire in Apple Laptop
The Japanese government said on Tuesday it knew of one case in Japan of a Sony Corp. made battery used in an Apple Computer Inc. notebook computer overheating and catching fire.
The incident, resulting in a minor burn to the user's finger, happened last April. The government said last week there had been two cases of Sony-made batteries used in Dell Inc.'s notebook computers catching fire in the country, but no one was injured. The report on Tuesday comes after Apple said last week that it will recall 1.8 million lithium-ion notebook PC batteries that use battery cells made by Sony.
