Will there be an iPhone 3G S recall?

There are new reports surfacing that new 3G S iPhone batteries are overheating.

This is, apparently, a reasonably common phenomenon–the hot iPhone. Around the forums, people are blaming Push features and bad batteries, and all sorts of things. Apple doesn’t seem to have responded to the complaints.

One user reported that he was recording video when the phone became very hot and died. Another–this is on the Apple Web site, in the forums–says there is a heat sensor inside that will record overheating and can be used to demand a replacement phone from the folks at the Genius Bar. We’ll see about that.

Will there be an iPhone 3G S recall? Based on my experience, no. Still, battery problems are the stuff of which recalls are made and Apple has not been immune from them in the past.
