Apple Tentatively Admits Nano Problem
September 28th, 2005
The Apple iPod Nano, launched with much fanfare two weeks ago, has been attracting its fair share of criticism about how robust, or otherwise, it is.
A small, but significant, proportion of Nano owners have found that their screens crack a little more easily than they should do. Apple, to their credit, have immediately acted to replace the defective Nanos, while steering clear of actually admitting a problem with the design.
“It is a real, but minor issue involving vendor quality problems,” an Apple spokesman said. “Any user with a defective screen should contact Apple and we will replace it for free.”
So, Apple moves to kill the story before it can gather steam, showing once again that they are masters of media spin.
