    Yup mine does, I think they all do to a point. I just stuck a small peice of cardboard in there between the back wall of the chassis and battery and it's a lot more snug now.

    Ok, cool. I heard a pop when I pulled the battery off and then I noticed the battery jiggling, figured it was doing it before and I was just being paranoid :)
