I was sitting here surfing the net and I started smelling smoke. I followed the strongness of the scent and look down and saw actual smoke coming from the cord on my brick.
I didnt know there was a new one. This one came with my SR MBP that I bought less than 90 days ago.
Yes I am on the phone with Apple right now, and they are BSing me telling me it will take 14 days to get a replacement.
This is a really good reminder for me to shut down and unplug my MBP when I go away for a few days next week...

This, along with the Mighty Mouse scroll ball, is one of Apple's more glaring design mistakes. At least they are doing something about it.
Are you kidding? That scroll ball MAKES the MM. It is orgasmic...
I might start to unplug my magsafe whenever I leave the house now. Imagine if that erupted when you were not at home.
That also explains why there is short supply. A lot of people are having them replaced. They're almost as rare as 15" MBPs at this stage. Wait time is listed as 2-3 weeks and you will be hard pressed to find a reseller that actually has them on hand.
the functionality of the scroll ball is nice...but its quality is crap ive only had mine about a month and already had to wash the stupid little ball to get it to scroll up again
Ooh, heaven forbid you have to wash it
Apples site says to wash it weekly to keep it clean. I don't look at it as a negative that it has to be kept clean. Mine has been working flawlessly because I clean it on a regular basis, while lots of people say it locks up and can't get it to work again. Lots of things need to be kept clean, it's not a negative quality.
Simple curiosity, is the scroll ball work like and old mouse with a rubber ball ?
