Unuseable battery??

[gdarel]

OK this was really odd..

I was playing solitare and all of a sudden I get an error message thats something to the effect of "Your battery is unuseable replace it" then it shut itself off.

I KNEW I had about 30% power left so I turned it back on and played for about another hour.

Has anyone else seen this?

It uses a smart battery, so maybe it was trying to tell you to take a break :D!

Seriously, it's wierd, the NZ batteries have a lot of issues.

maybe the battery is the new improved smart-a$$ battery... it harasses you for free?

It happened to me once last week. I opened the battery case and close it again and that's all.It was Ok

But TODAY it happened three times to me! With a soft reset it is also OK. I'm anxious

Maybe Wassup (I installed it yesterday)?

maybe you would like to give SONY a call. As mentioned earlier, 1 of the tech support at SONY said "NZ battery is a problem, and they are sorting things out" .. however, another one said "The battery is adequate, no problem" .. so which is which ??

This shows that SONY's staff does not even know what is going on .. sad to say that. Therefore, the 'suffering' effect will be the customer end.
