iPod Nano Class Action Suit

Apple always royally screws up like this. It's like they didn't learn the lessons from their 1G and 2G iPods, and are doomed to make the same mistakes with the nano and the video iPods.

Only the 4G and minis had the best scratch resistance. Shame for Apple.

Thats funny, my nano is fine. And what? They want a share of the profits? Hell i bet the RIAA is backing these suckers.

This won't go anywhere. Why can't people just go out and find a job and earn a living. These people should be shot for frivolous lawsuits (and no, not put in jail, that is a waste of money, they should just be shot).

this is ridiculus, the nano screen is made out of the same material every other iPod ever has been made out of, this is just a bunch of greedy bastards taking advantage of the false claims of how easy it scratches.

of note, i have a 3rd gen iPod, you know, the one with the 2 hour battery :rolleyes: and after almost 2 and a half years of owning it, i still get over two days of regular use on one charge. these people are full of it...

Bloody idiots. They want a refund, a cut of profits AND to keep their Nanos.

It would have been smarter to use all those tens of thousands of dollars going to into the attorneys' pockets, and invest in a decent case for the iPod.

Apple's consumer-base is definitely moving outside the 'intelligent customer' bubble.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go file a class action lawsuit against VW for the scratches on my car.

I don't understand all this uproar about the Nano scratching. I know people with Nanos and they don't scratch any more easily than any other unprotected iPod. iPods have always scratched easily unprotected. I am on my 4th iPod and I keep it in Apple's iPod carrier when its not in use. Otherwise, it would have scratches all over it. I think people just want to make a few extra bucks at Apple's expense.

If rubbing a nano with a paper towel renders the screen unreadable, then something is wrong. But I have a sneaking suspicion that they exaggerated a bit.

I love Apple but I hope they lose. They need to learn how to make a solid product that DOESN'T SCRATCH. First rule of product making: Don't build it like butter.

Don't they lost a certain amount of ground for the case when they choose to spend the money on purchasing an iPod? They didn't have to buy one. Apple didn't force it upon them.

You buy it, it's your own darn responsibility to keep it from scratching. Whoever's putting their nano in their pocket with keys and coins deserves to get it scratched up.

This is nothing but whining. I'm sure it scratches fairly easily, but unless ordinary use actually renders it unusable, which I highly doubt, then this is crap.

Although the screen is made of the exact material as the other iPods, the screen scratching issue on the Nanos is a very serious problem that Apple has been denying for a while now. I hope this lawsuit will make Apple to correct this problem.
