Apple recalls MacBook Pro MagSafe adapters

Don't go to your local Apple Store, or any other store for that matter, in search of a new MagSafe power adapter for your MacBook Pro. Apparently Apple has pulled them from store shelves.

The current MagSafe adapters have a small issue where the plastic wire will melt a little where it meets both the connector and the power brick. People have also been experiencing connection issues due to the pins not springing back into place properly.

Apple is working on a new MagSafe power adapters and will have them out to retailers soon. According to Apple.com new orders will ship in 2-3 weeks.
