Its all about giving the public what they want ain’t it <smile>.

Seriously though, one report I read about the Note 7 issue,
essentially said that it's an inherent risk with Lithium Ion batteries
as we approach the limits of just how much power you push through them
and how quickly - the more we ask our phones to do and the thinner
they try to make the batteries - without any great leaps forward in
mobile battery technology, the more likely we are to see such
problems.
I have to say, this obsession with phone manufacturers trying to make
their phones ever thinner is, I think, half the problem - I mean, I'd
be just as happy with my phone if it was twice the thickness it is,
but didn't risk catching fire and the battery lasted two days rather
than one. To be honest, it would probably be easier to hold...

Subject: [vi-android] Latest mobile phones: a fiery business
I post the below for public interest.
This is very worrying.
I've just been watching Yesterday's 6 PM TV news -at 2 AM this morning -.
The news showed footage and gave details of an iPhone 7 catching fire in the
same way that the Samsung Note7 has been doing.
Thankfully - when the phone caught fire - it was in a car and the owner was
out completing other business.
When he got back to his car he found the cars inside totally destroyed.
So the question, what the hell's going on? Are Apple getting their internal
batteries from the same supplier as Samsung? - For the record Samsung used
Panasonic batteries in their Note7. -
