Post Second I-Phone Explodes.

Ayla Mota from Brazil reportedly awoke in the middle of the night to find her iPhone emitting sparks and smoke.
According to Brazil’s techtudo website, Mota had her iPhone 4 plugged in to charge overnight when it allegedly started to emit sparks and smoke while she slept.
Quote:
"I woke up seconds before witnessing the burning of my iPhone," Mota said. "I saw a lot of sparks and black smoke coming out of the cell phone. My room was filled with an unbearable smell of smoke. That moment, I turned off the power switch in the room to remove the cell from the outlet. Soon after, I opened the windows and turned on the fan."

Currently, the suspect in cases such as this is the battery. Apple itself has not commented thus far, but we have contacted the company again to seek a word or two of wisdom.
You better watch those phones if you want to keep your house and your life.

Why couldn't they get a new phone?
Some people just can't stay away from the best phones.
The best of phones can have problems as serious as this.

Just look at this battery. They would have been screwed if the phone had a battery like this.

If the batteries are so dangerous, why do people put them in objects?

I heard they make great power sources, and the battery only goes bad if you misuse it. Keep those things in a metal box if you want to keep your house.

Gonna guess that wasn't directed at me, and I wonder what you have to do to cause a I phone to actually explode,Myth Busters should do it sometime probably.
