    Dell in Ireland have told me they are having production delay difficulty due to battery shortages for laptops due to a factory fire in a battery manufacturing plant.

    Anyone know anymore or what batterys are in short supply?

    Well mine was in production today and is now being boxed up (in the Irish plant) - it's a M1530 with a 6 cell battery, so I guess you could write that one off the list.
