Apple begins shipping replacement iPhone chargers
Apple announced a recall of all of its ultracompact USB power adapter for iPhone (pictured) on 21 September 2008 because its metal prongs can break off and remain in a power outlet, creating a risk of electric shock. iPhone Alley received word that a reader has received the replacement he ordered online. More information on the recall is available from Apple.
