Toshiba notebook battery recalls around the corner?

Toshibasatellitep10304Got a Toshiba Satellite or Dynabook? If so, keep your peepers peeled for a potential recall notice. Reuters has a blurb on the news and Engadget has more deets. Apparently, about 340,000 Sony batteries with potential problems are powering these Toshiba models. No reports or videos of exploding Toshibas just yet, which is good because I hate to see any good mobile device on fire. Anybody know if Sony makes the 288V batteries for Toyota Highlander Hybrids? If so, let me know so I can trade mine in before the recall or the flame-out on the highway, whichever comes first.
