maybe your perticular model got recalled or something , or a batch of the ones from that line are having the same problems , and they maybe out of the ibook where you sent it , and instead of waiting a couple weeks or more for a new shipment they decided to send you a PB , or maybe they are in the giving spirit haha . congrats either way though .

Hey! Can you break my iBook for me! They probaby didn't want a law suit on their hands. House burning down, because of iBook equals not very good press for Apple.
