    MacBook Pro Battery Recall
    https://support.apple.com/macbookpro...nge/index.html

    Just saw this on TUAW and my mbp battery is in the program. I've had no issues but a free new battery is a free new battery.

    Check yours out!

    yeah batteries are heavy things to ship.

    They include a SAE for returning them so they are making it as easy as possible.
