Don't know whether or not this has been posted. We certainly have all heard the rumors but here is further evidence of the problems that SONY has been having. "Sony Recalls NP-F550 and NP-F570 InfoLithium batteries bought after March 1999 due to evidence of a very small percentage (3 out of 415,000) overheating and smoking during recharge. These batteries are used on a variety of devices including the Sony Mavicas and D700 / D770." Happy Investing.................Jacques

The Dog has left the pound. I will not miss him. To: Bill Wexler who wrote (7067) From: Bill Wexler Saturday, Mar 4, 2000 8:06 PM ET Reply # of 7084 OK boys and girls...that's it for me. I was going to leave SI a few months ago because of time constraints and the deteriorating quality of SI. I have noticed that this thread has deteriorated into nothing more than a constant barrage of insults by scam stock-touting cretins. It has become impossible to point out possible frauds or crim stocks without attracting endless amounts of noise and harrassment - there are some days when I scroll down this thread and a good 90% of the messages are [ignored]. I even have people on other threads (such as IDX) spreading lies and misleading information about me...long after I have closed my position in the stock. So I am retiring permanently from posting on SI (though I will probably still read it now and then). I will, however, be posting on www.masteringwallstreet.com (the TCV ventures site). At least the cost of the site and the monitoring of its chat effectively bars the nitwits, and I can discuss my trades much, much closer to real-time. Au revoir, BW
