Apple and batteries catching on fire has been a problem with Apple since almost forever. This is not a new problem for Apple Actually, no, it has not. You can count the number of iPhones that have caught fire on the fingers of two hands. Apple instituted a recall of 32,000 batteries for laptops over six overheating Sony made batteries, none caught fire. In the same month, Dell and HP had to recall 360,000 Sony made batteries and some had actually caught fires, causing injury and property damage. Apple got the headlines. When an Apple device does have a problem, it makes headlines. . . but it is a RARE event.

Apple just does not make the iPhone buddy, I guess you forgot about the iBook/MacBook battery fires/explosions and Apple had to recall tons of batteries. So you agreed with me that Apple has had problems with batteries before by stating I was wrong. Are you Hillary Clinton?

Wow, what a small market share. I remember the iBook/MacBook battery fiasco, and I think they had others since then as well. Bursts into flames, you couldn't even take a Apple laptop on a plane because it was such a hazard
