Battery prices are way to high...

[JoeB.]

hi,
check out the prices for original sony batteries by ebay... they go in somecases for less than 100 euro's. sony ist asking 249 euro's for a battery, were i've been told from insiders that the production cost ist around 42 euro's per battery. sony had better come of off this "bend-over" trip before i put a spell on them. my battery has 73 chargecycles on it, and the capacity is already starting to decay, now there is no way that i would pay 249 euro's for a battery. i'd rather sell my vaio notebook and get a dell notebook.

SONY Stop this rip-off
