Exploding and overheating batteries seem to be dogging the mobile electronics industry.  The latest to be hit?  Nokia.  Their BL-5C batteries (found in both the N70 and the N91, both of which I own) are now under a recall.  The battery in question was made by Matsushita between December 2005 and November 2006, and is the most common battery in Nokia's kit-bag. 

To find out if your batteries are affected, and how to obtain a replacement, visit Nokia's battery replacement website. 

Nokia's Stephen Johnston has authored a piece titled Enterprise 2.0 — What does it mean for mobile? which is well worth a read.  He covers the gamut from WEB API's to collaboration tools and presence, touching on places where gaps exist today, and speculating a little about the future.
