Nokia stops sales of Lumia 2520 tablet over electric shock fears

From CNET: Nokia has suspended sales of the Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet over fears that the charger could give you an electric shock.

Anyone with a Lumia 2520 in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Russia, Switzerland and the UK is "strongly advised to suspend use of the AC-300 charger until further notice."

Nokia also urges people in those countries and in the USA not to use the travel charger accessory. Sales of the 2520 continue in the US, but the travel charger has been removed from shelves.

Nokia says there is "a potential product quality issue that may potentially lead to a safety concern" in certain AC-300 chargers, which are manufactured by a third-party supplier. The charger in question is only used for the 2520 slate, so other Nokia phones and chargers are fine.
