Powerbook replacement batteries

->> FYI............Just received 2 new batteries from Apple, took about 3 weeks. They also give you a prepaid label and box to ship your old batteries back in. Pleasantly surprised with the quick tunaround. After draining the new batteries and then fully recharging I had about 3 hours of work time with PS and Photo Mechanic.

Thanks for the update. For comparison my replacement order was placed in person at the Austin Apple Store on September 1. Still haven't gotten it.

->> I recieved my replacement battery a few days ago as well, if you have a Powerbook or iBook you should definitely check out the link above to see if you qualify for the battery exchange.

->> I filled out my recall form the day after the announcement and got my battery less than a week later. I guess it's just gotten really congested lately since everyone keeps sending theirs in.
