Toshiba Recalls 830,000 Sony Batteries

In what seems to be a never ending stream of recalls, Toshiba has recalled 830,000 Sony batteries while Dell has increased its own recall of Sony batteries from 4.1 million to 4.2 million.

Sony's battery problems deepened on Friday after Toshiba joined the list of PC makers recalling its batteries including Dell, Apple Computer and Lenovo Group. This is the latest in a series of setbacks that have shaken consumer and investor confidence in Sony's technological competitiveness.
