Consumers upset about their iPod nano screen becoming easily scratched have filed a class-action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California in San Jose against Apple Computer, demanding their money back plus a share of the company's profits. Apple said a bad batch of Nanos had caused those problems and denied the device was more likely to scratch than other models of the popular player reports BBC
In September, Nano owner Matthew Peterson started a website to force Apple to admit the problems and replace gadgets. Now Jason Tomczak, another upset Nano customer, is at the centre of legal action over the gadget. The lawsuit alleges nano owner Jason Tomczak rubbed a paper towel on the face of his nano and "that alone left significant scratches." I am sure it was probably really dry, hard paper .
Tomczak also points out that advertising for the Nano featured Apple chief executive Steve Jobs carrying the media player in his pocket. But the filing states that even carrying the Nano in the same pocket as the earphones quickly renders the screen so scratched that it becomes unusable reports vnunet.com
"Rather than admit the design flaw when consumers began to express widespread complaints ... Apple concealed the defect and advised class members that they would need to purchase additional equipment to prevent the screen from scratching excessively," according to the complaint.
