Browsing the Apple support pages today in the iBook section, I found a link to a battery exchange program. Apparently, some iBook batteries have faults which will cause them to heat up. I checked my iBook’s serial and the battery serial and I have one of the affected batteries. So I entered all my details and a replacement should be with me within 7 to 9 days. Amazing to think that my 4 year old iBook which I bought over a week ago second hand qualifies for a free replacement battery. I was planning to buy a new battery also as I only get 20min out of the current one. Thanks for saving me £89, Apple!
