One of the things that many have noted on their teardown of the Apple iPhone is this: it's not easy to get to the battery and replace it. Apple, has anticipated this need, and have ready a Battery Replacement Plan for the iPhone, which will cost you $79 for a new battery and 6.95 for shipping and handling. If you can't live without your iPhone for a few days while the battery replacement takes place (who can live without a phone for a few days?), they'll rent you a iPhone for $29 a day.
I'm just hoping that one of these days they'll do a similar thing for their laptops, or better yet, include it as part of their Applecare service.
