Same thing happened to me. I called Apple around 4:00pm and they overnight shipped me a new one and I got it at 10:00am the next morning for no charge. (I didn't even purchase extended Applecare coverage)
Anyways, authorized Apple dealers are not responsible for the Apple warranty, asfk. I'd call Apple again and tell them there's no Apple store near you.
The new iMac looks beautiful though. I would jump on it right away if I was in the market for a desktop. iLife '08 has everything that I've been waiting for and more; new and improved iPhoto and iMovie =)
PS. I took some pictures of my old Melted Magsafe for those who are interested. The one they sent back seems to be a newer model with reinforced support around that area.
