Look at your power adapter. If it has a green dot in the corner it is good. If not, you can take your power adapter to any apple store or file for an exchange at.

All original adapters are being recalled. If you have the 3G phone, it needs to be replaced free of charge.

I just called DHl and they came to my house in about an hour and picked up the package. Really simple.

You'll be labled a bum and maybe a theif, too.

I don't think they really care, you'll just be one less person that can sue them.

What I meant to say is, What if you order a new one, then fail to send back your old one. Thus keeping both. What would happen?

I don't think they really care, you'll just be one less person that can sue them (when you shock the crap out of yourself using the old one AFTER they sent you a new one).

Heh, what if I get them mixed up and send back the new one? LoL...I'm just being facetious.

Really though, I never remove the one I have plugged into an extension cord under my nightstand. At bedtime I plug the usb in and let it charge.
