Re: battery replacement under warr?



Don,

I have a 360C and therefore only walk-in warranty - but - I called the help line in 
Canada and they told me how to recondition my battery.  i humored them by doing what 
they said, and of course, it didn't work.  I called back and told them, then walked into 
the service centre.  They swapped it for a new one no questions asked.  Just another 
reason to buy IBM I guess... ACER on the other hand - well, that's another story in 
customer service.
