[QUOTE="Kash, post: 1033002, member: 23444"] Cycle count isn't everything. My battery was relatively new and had a high cycle count, but it was clearly defective. In the OP's case, it's very well possible that his relatively new battery also has some defect. pigoo3, my battery was "functioning" just fine as well, it would still hold a charge (albeit less than I would have liked), but it was still ever so slightly bulging. I had to take mine out and inspect it closely to actually notice it, so for all we know the OP hasn't noticed a bulge in his battery. Get it checked out at the Genius Bar. Worst they can do is deny you a replacement. [/QUOTE]
