	Howdy! I have a charger for an iBook with a mangled connector, the end that plugs into the iBook. It was bent/tugged on about 1000 times too many. I shelled out the cash for a replacement charger, so I'm back in business, but it seems a waste to chuck the entire charger when it is only the wires that are broken inside the strain relief device. Anyone know how to get into this connector, or where I can buy a replacement? I only burn myself once or twice each time I plug in the soldering iron, so I think this is at my skill level. I'm trying to clean out the dead hardware pile, but I feel bad tossing this thing. Thanks, -Michael
