iPhone 3G owners all over the world don’t forget to demand an USB power adapter exchange. Apple is recalling every adapter which was shipped in one of the countries: USA, Japan, Mexico, Canada. Latin American owners should also receive new USB power adapters. You can simply exchange the adapter via the Internet or in an Apple store.

The whole process will start on October 10th. Apple said there’s a design flaw in its USB power adapters for the iPhone 3G. That will make the prongs break off and remain in the power outlet which means there’s a high risk of electric shock.

Apple recommends that you should stop using any of them until you get a new redisigned adapter. You can also charge your iPhone through your PC or by using a standard Apple USB Power Adapter which has fold up prongs.

Better go to a store for an exchange. Ordering it online will get your new adapter in about 3 weeks. The replacements are marked with a green dot at the bottom, just so you won’t get confused.

Well it’s better for Apple to replace a few million adapters than to have anyone electrocuted, wouldn’t you say?
