apcmiller Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 If you're the type of lawyer looking to file big class action lawsuits, then it seems you should start looking at blogs and newsgroups. Or, perhaps it's already too late. It didn't take long at all for a class action lawsuit to be filed against Apple for the infamous scratches that are appearing on the faces of the iPod Nano during "normal usage." While Apple has agreed to replace the screens that are so bad they've cracked, it appears that's not enough for some users. The complaints on blogs and message boards have been tremendous, and all it took was one lawyer to set up the class action suit -- which actually requests a share of the profits on the sale of the devices. It's likely that Apple will work out some sort of settlement and buy the complainants off quietly, but it's difficult to see how Apple would lose should the case go to court. It's not like they made a promise the screens wouldn't scratch.Techdirt.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 It's not like they made a promise the screens wouldn't scratch.it's not the fact they didn't say it was bullet proof, it's the fact that they knowingly sold an inferior product in an attempt to make a greater profit. if such a thing was done by a car company for their windshields it would be a completely different story. basicly, they're not looking at how crappy the nano is, they're looking at the bad and greedy buissness practices of the sony corporation (you can't tell one company to something and let another company do the complete opposite) :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
