I would like to know what the warning signs are, though. As an informed consumer, I should know that if my phone feels extra hot for a couple of hours, I might not want to put it into my pants pocket. Or if it starts to smoke, I should stop charging it.
Ever hear of something called common sense? What you describe is the warning on packages of peanuts that say "May contain peanuts"....I for one certainly hope the package does.
The problem is poorly designed circuitry, not LiIon technology.
