Sony recalls 440,000 potential home infernos

Not too long ago, about 9.6 million Sony laptop batteries were recalled from around the world after a couple of them (OK, maybe more than just a couple) decided to go haywire and send the laptops that they were attached to exploding into flames. 

But if you thought that was the end of all your Sony related fire problems, then you're wrong. Just hours ago, news of another Sony recall hit the web - this time with the Sony Vaio TZ being the catalyst. Apparently, this recall announcment comes after seven people (five in Japan, one in USA, one in Italy) have being burnt by fires caused by faulty wirining in their Vaio TZ's. Sony Malaysia's website doesn't have any further information regarding the recalls, so until then, it's advisable to keep a fire extinguisher handy.

More information on the recalls here and here
