Maybe the same. I just read it in this months PC World.
This is 6 month old information, no idea why it is recirculating again. Nikon has free replacement programs for these batteries and the recal was limited to very specific production batteries.

I think Canon is keeping that news alive - just to be neighborly. :D

It may be old but its still valid. The batteries are still out there, and probably still being sold.
