The Apple Core: MBP 33 percent battery bug
Something weird has been happening with the battery in my MacBook Pro 2.0 GHz for the past two or three weeks. Several times after carrying my MBP in a bag to or from work it would arrive completely shut down - which is weird because I never shut my machine down, I just put it to sleep. Then that problem morphed into something a little more serious.

You have a bad battery. I just received my replacement - exact same things were happening to me, starting and progressing in the same way.
I also noticed a nasty bulge in my battery, as if it were on the edge of exploding. :-) Interested to know if this was just a structural / cosmetic coincidence or if it was related to the inability of the battery work properly.
