iPod Nano Complaints Rolling In

Sunday, Sep. 25 2005 | Author: jeremy

Apparently Apple is fielding lots of complaints from customers who have purchased the iPod Nano, citing that the screen is very easy to scratch. One customer even complained that his clothes scratched it.

“In a week my ipod will look like crap,” said another nano owner, Daniel Busbin. “I bought it because its supposed to be great for working out and being active. My CLOTHES SCRATCHED IT. I dont want to say Im mad, but this is my first apple product, and the $265 was not easy for me to scrape up. Basically Im just dissapointed. I called the Apple store where I bought it and they said they had never heard about it scratching. They did however admit their display models all look like crap.”

I think this was one thing that made the iPod Mini so attractive. It had that tough metal shell and the screen was depressed, so that the surface was not easy to scratch.

New like this makes me want to try and get my iPod Nano for free rather than buying one.

One product didn’t work for you, so you hate another product.

I’m glad to see such insightful readers on FG.

Why are you running a link to a pyramid scheme?

True you don’t have to have your friends kick in money to join this scam… still subjecting them to a lifetime of spam and junk mail seems pretty mean-hearted.

In case anybody out there doesn’t know this basic law of physical and metaphysical universe…
Here it is again:

YOU DON’T GET SOMETHING FOR NOTHING.

(note: and when human beings are doing the offering of “som’in for nut’in you’ve got two good choices:

1) Point a hypothetical gun at them and say scram.
OR
2) Turn and run as fast as you can.

The iPod for teh most part is a good product, people just assume to much. Since the iPod nano is such a small (Sleek) unit, people seem to think that this in an invataion to stick in places like thier pockets and such. This is stupid because of course your iPod is going to get scratched up. Even if you take the baest care of it possiable, it going to get scratched, it’s life, it happens, and it’s not only the iPod, it’ll happen to almost anything… suck it up. Most of the problems that people have with iPod is because they have no place owning one in the first place. You could not ask for a more basic device for listning to music… and yet people seem to always miss the most logical answers.

if your iPod is showing just the apple symbol, then plug it into the back of your computer, make sure that the hold switch is turned off (showing White) and press and hold at the same time the “menu”, and the middle select button, hold those two buttons down for about 10-20 seconds, if you notice that the iPod turns off then on again just leave it plugged in for about four hours to give it a good solid charge.
