The recall is for a SPECIFIC adapter, the one that came with the iPhone 3G. It's not one for the iPod, MacBook, Nano, it's specific to iPhone 3G Why is this so difficult to understand.

To the person that said they weren't going to return it just to see what Apple does, well I hope they charge you double then. Because they will charge you at least the $30 cost of the item. For your stupidity, they should double that charge.

If there isn't a DHL facility near you, call DHL, they will pick it up. Common sense people, USE IT
 
As I see it, apple still owes me $100 from the initial price drop of the 1st gen iphone.

I called applecare, and the representative told me that I didn't have to send it back (they weren't requiring it). I asked if I was going to be charged, and she said that they did not have a credit card on file, so no.

Now apple only owes my $70 :rolleyes:

So I've got one charging my Xbox360 controller, and the other charging my ps3 controller...genius!

Picked mine up earlier from the soho store. They asked for the old adapter and the serial number from the "Settings->General->About" screen.

That's what you get for being an early adopter. I don't think sony owes me 200 bucks because I bought a PS3 for 599 and now it's 399
 
Just got mine today, around 11AM PST here in Seattle (shipped last Oct 8).

Mine came through FedEx, I should be able to send this back today.
 
:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Could I jus go drop the old adapter to the local apple store and not ship it back out cuz i know ill be at the apple store by the date the adapter has to be returned. Also if i can do the previous question then could i get another replacement or not cuz theyd check the serial codes
 
Just got mine, and i live in northeast Oklahoma.

This is what is on the backside of the shipping label you peel off.

I called the DHL guy for a pickup and literally 2 minutes after i got off the phone.
He was at my door, same dude as last time who picked up my MBP battery.

Twice had the DHL guy show up less than five minutes later, i love DHL :)
 
I called the SF Stockton Apple Store before I went to p/u my green dot charger, and then I was out of the store in less than five minutes. No line and about three other people jumped into line as I was walking towards the door. Painless...:cool:

I am amazed at the stupidity displayed by some...
 
I sent mine back like a good boy. Besides, I have so many spare adapters which came with other iPod/iPhone items I don't need to keep yet another one.
 
Picked mine up from the Apple Store today. They opened a drawer gave me one, and took the old one back. I asked if I needed to sign anything or if they needed to check anything, and the response to me was, no you are fine. Took all of ten seconds.
 
Way to go Apple, deliver it in a waste of space. For a second I thought Apple sent me air.

I got mine, and it came in a box exactly like that one.... except mine had the egg shell foam on top and bottom, no fancy slot for the charger. lol
 
Returned both of the adaptors I had to the store at the Millenia Mall in Orlando, and was out of there in a few moments. They did have to do two transactions since the secon one was an extra one that I bought so I could have one at home and one at the office, but they used the same serial number for both.
