Nikon is recalling battery packs - ripped from dpreview:
Nikon has issued an advisory asking owners of cameras with the model EN-EL3 Lithium-Ion battery to return them for exchange. This battery was included with the Nikon D50, D70 and D100 as well as sold as an accessory. Apparently some affected batteries can short out and overheat. Nikon has published a list of 'lot numbers' of the affected batteries, at the moment we only have information from Nikon USA, if you live in other regions you should check with your local distributor.

Boo Ya? You know if you had a defective one they'd give you a higher capacity EN-EL3a or if your lucky an EN-EL3e (D200 Battery).

Mine was affected. Filled out the forum and printed out the shipping label a few hours ago
