Sony is planning to announce a massive battery recall of its own, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) confirmed.
The recall, expected this month, will encompass all possibly defective batteries, including those previously announced by manufacturers for specific notebook computers, said Julie Vallese, director of the Office of Public Affairs at the CPSC. But it is not expected to extend to batteries for devices other than laptops.

The gist of the information provided is correct. Sony is having a laptop battery recall.

Indeed they are...after Apple and Dell (and now a couple other companies) started their own recalls of the Sony made batteries. All in all apparently over 7.5 million batteries are being recalled, 5.6 million of which are from Apple and Dell.
