NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Apple is recalling 1.8 million battery packs for its iBook and PowerBook notebook computers because of an overheating problem, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced Thursday.

The cells in the lithium-ion batteries in the iBook G4 and PowerBook G4 computers - the only two models affected by the recall - were produced by Sony.


Also included in the recall is the PowerBook G4 computer.

  
The recall will have "no material impact" on Apple's finances, according to an Apple spokesman.

Apple (up $0.50 to $67.81, Charts) stock was just slightly lower after the recall announcement, but shares of Sony (down $1.16 to $43.26, Charts) fell about 2.5 percent.

"It's primarily a Sony issue for Dell, so I expect it to be similar for Apple," said Wendy Abramowitz of Argus Research. "Considering that Apple sells a lot fewer PCs than Dell does, I don't see it having a substantial impact."

简单说明：苹果宣布召回180万有过热可能的电池组，涉及到iBook G4 and PowerBook G4 ，该电池组由SONY制造，苹果发言人称此事没什么大的影响。在声明发布后，双方股价都小有下跌.
