    Ok, I got my SZ 120 at around April 2006, and I usually alway use AC power when i'm using my laptop and barely use battery power at all, probably only about 4 times since I got it. However, I turn on my laptop today, the battery just disappear and my laptop can no longer recognize it -_-. Any help ? Can I still be able to get Sony to replace me a brand new battery ? (I didn't brought any extra warranty or anthing when I get the laptop)

    It seems this is a bit of a trend. Perhaps a bad batch of batteries got out around that time. Give Sony a call. They should replace your battery for you.

    There's a long thread in this forum about exactly that problem.

    May be the owners of such "bad batch" of batteries can jort down the serail # or model # so that other can varified it when they purchase a new SZ.

    Or Sony already sort out this problem & the new battery that come with SZ is already been fixed?
