Apple iPhone 3G Power Adapter Recall
The title of this blog entry pretty much sums it up just so. Apple is recalling the power adapters for their 3G iPhones.
Apparently the prongs are prone to breaking off. Oops! Because, you know, that’s just so hard to engineer these days. We don’t have billions of products that can plug into wall sockets without that happening or anything… (Do I even have to point out that’s sarcasm?)
So yeah, the quality of Apple. The same folks that brought you the Scratch-O-Matic iPod Nano screen.
So if you own an iPhone 3G, stop using that power adapter. Contact Apple for an exchange. And use your computer’s USB port to recharge the bloody thing in the mean time. Better safe than sorry.
