Dude did you see the news about how if you have a DELL as a carry-on on an airplane you have to check the battery as luggage?

Someone better call the doctor for DELL's stock cause it just fell!

The issue is essentially the same. Both Dell and Apple use the same Sony battery technology. If you wanna see bad hits to stock on SONY's side...
