Steven Clark v. Apple Computer: Power Adapter Class Action Suit

I got some interesting snail mail yesterday, along with the phone bill I already paid, a Crutchfield catalog filled with things I probably already own or can't afford and some junk mail from Geico trying to sell my insurance for the car that I haven't owned in about 10 years. Bulk mailing NYC straphangers about car insurance probably isn't the smartest geotargeting, but I digress...

Why should you care about my my mail? Because what I received might pertain to you – if you are one of the "PERSONS OR ENTITIES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES WHO OWN OR OWNED APPLE POWER ADAPTERS FOR THE APPLE G3 iBOOK OR POWERBOOK COMPUTER MODELS LISTED IN ATTACHMENT 1.A OR WHO RECEIVED AN APPLE POWER ADAPTER IN APPLE'S RECALL OF 'BLACK BRICK' POWER ADAPTERS."

The Apple Adapter Settlement Claims Administrator informs me that I might have a $20-$35 refund coming to me, thanks to a lawsuit filed earlier this year by Steven Clark on behalf of those of us who bought Powerbooks or iBooks with faulty or recalled power adapters. Apple has reached a tentative settlement agreement with the plaintiffs (that would be us, collectively) and a final approval hearing is scheduled for September 27, 2005.

You can read more about the suit, the settlement terms, how to file a claim or how to exclude yourself from the Class on the Settlement Website, with corresponding information on the attorney's website.

Anyone else get one of these yet?
