    I'm Not saying that Apple have acted like the Mafia But..........


    The Guy who raised the Nano problems has gone Missing & his Website links back to Apple ?

    There were some very serious Veiled threats to him ?

    Personally I have made a decision NOT to buy any Apple products because of the Handling of the Nano situation.

    Their customer service act in a Very negative manner when a genuine customer complaint has been made.

    My Boss once had a Mercedes which was faulty and the official line was Deny all knowledge about said problem, Hence he'll never buy another Mercedes again !

    How about 'Limited Edition' or 'Special Edition'

    Then she can brag to her mates that it's a special one.

    The original website which included "ipod" as part of the URL was surrendered after legal action. The name "ipod" is copyrighted by Apple.

    He did setup and alternative website at http://homepage.mac.com/matthewdotcom/nano/

    Thinking about it, perhaps it's not such a good idea to have a personalised inscription on it. At some point, the device is going to become obsolete to it's user and will inevitably end up being sold - it's value will be lessened if it is personalised....

    the rate she loses stuff it won't last long enough to become obsolete, she dropped her mobile in the sea three times this summer!
    Thanks anyway I think it will end up with her name on it at least it will be easier to identify when some toe rag nicks it at school
