Not a SINGLE exploding battery has been Nokia's. They've ALL been a case of someone using a cheap ass $2 replacement - which get less quality control than a 7-Layer Burrito. You get what you pay for.
I really feel sorry for the guy, but Nokia doesn't have a thing to do with his limb loss. There's no way they'll pay him the 26 large, because doing so would admit guilt for something they just aren't responsible - and it'd set a precedent (the next counterfeit battery victim would sue for millions, citing this case). He needs to go after the people making and selling these counterfeit batteries.
