Irate Ipod Nano Users File Class Action Against Apple

Irate iPod nano users have filed a lawsuit against Apple alleging that the firm launched the product knowing the screen of the credit card-sized music player was defective.

Consumers have filed a proposed class action lawsuit in California claiming the nano scratched "excessively during normal usage" because its protective plastic resin is too thin. "Apple concealed the defect and advised class members that they would need to purchase additional equipment to prevent the screen from scratching excessively," the complaint said.

Apple had no comment yesterday.
