Scratch One Up for Nano Owners<< RSS Makes CRM Debut | Main | IBM Purchases iPhrase Technologies >> Zachary McGeary | September 29, 2005, 12:30 PM NEWS: Apparently hordes of Nano owners have taken to the Internet to announce and commiserate the scratches that all too easily appear on their screens, making photo viewing and just about everything else very difficult. A quick glance at the Discussion section of the Apple website reveals numerous threads on this exact topic. A few websites (example here, now apparently offline) have sprung up to promote the cause as well. Score one for consumers and consumer generated media: Apple announced yesterday that they would repair or replace defective Nanos. They stated the problem is a "vendor quality problem" that affects "less than one-10th of 1 percent" of Nanos that have already shipped. Even if that sounds low, listen to them roar! Here is another site. Embarrassing for Apple. Check out CGM at its finest here. On a similar note, have you seen the black Nano? Very sharp. |
