If so, depending on which one you have, the batteries might be recalled due to the fact the batteries could lead to overheating and spark a fire.

Dell recalls 4 million laptop batteries (http://www.baltimoresun.com/technology/bal-dell0814,0,451657.story?coll=bal-home-headlines)

my work gave me a Latitude D620...I'll check it out, but our IT guys are pretty on top of things, and I should know, because I am one!

Do you work in Montgomery County by any chance? The IT guys where I work do a good job.

I have a Latitude C400 which is not involved. They have info up now, go to the Dell web site and to the support page. They have a link for the recall.
