iPhone 3G USB Power Adapter Recall

Yes, it's true. The power adapters that come with the iPhone 3G are being recalled. Apple claims that they have received many complaints that when the adapter is plugged in, and then pulled out, the prongs get stuck in the outlet and it is dangerous because someone might get an electrical shock. The replacements aren't being given away until October 10, 2008. You can read more about it here: http://www.macrumors.com/2008/09/19/apple-recalls-iphone-3g-usb-power-adapter/

Be safe guys!

yeah i'm glad you're branching out from cases bud. what else do you accessorize your iphone with? do you have a dock or speakersystem for it? have you tried the various styli that they have for the iphone/itouch?

[AYOBONUS]

i do have a bose sound dock, which the iphone doesn't support currently. but i don't really use much accessories with my iphone. my car has an aux jack for ipods and my iphone.. bluetooth? i guess? nothing else really...

You know why they stuck in? THE PRONGS ARE LITERALLY HOT GLUED IN. I have no idea what Steve was thinking. Maybe he was running out of solder and had to go for the cheapo approach. Also I believe the prongs' anchors were only 1/16th of an inch long. The new one's have longer anchors but the prong change seems pointles as mine still requires an unreal amount of force to pull it out
