A Timebomb in My PowerBook!?

It turns out that the battery in my 12" PowerBook G4 is one of the ones Apple wishes to recall. I've filled in the form and Apple are sending me a new one out in the mail but it's going to take 4-6 weeks to arrive. I'm going to be travelling down to London twice in that timeframe so hope that BA don't decide to follow Quantas' lead and consider banning Apple batteries from the cabin.I know Apple recommend that you remove the offending battery immedisately and run the PowerBook on mains power only, but that isn't really an option for me right now so I will be dicing with death and continuing to use my battery until the replacement arrives. Wish me luck!
