A class action lawsuit has been launched against Apple Computer claiming the company’s recently released diminutive iPod nano scratches too easily. The lawsuit, filed in US District Court in San Jose California, seeks to represent up to 125,000 iPod owners the law firm that launched the case said.

I have one and it's been scratched since about 20 minutes after I got it because I wiped the front with a cotton shirt I was wearing to remove all my finger prints!

Exactly my point, they just break - I was this (=) close to buying one before the guy next to me said it would scratch on the way home.
It is still a great mp3 player, just to breakable.
I guess you will just need to take real good care of it ben_.

Heh yeah I mostly have it in my shirt pocket .. the other thing i really hate about it is it gets covered in fingerprints the moment you touch it.

Overall it's funky as hell but it already looks like I've had it for years ..

Ahwell, it has great features to back it up.
And, its the size of five credit cards stacked up - thin as. ^_^

I've seen them, I've used them, but I wouldn't buy one. I currently have a mini, and buying a nano the same size for another $300CDN, is just pointless to me. I want one of the new full sized video ones

Please do not PM me for support.

The full size video ones look good but sound crap.

Battery life is ridiculous - 3 hours for the 60gb, 2 hours for the 30gb. You'd be lucky to get 2 movies (on a tiny screen) to play, plus you'd be holding it the whole time ..

Apple says they should buy Apple iPod Nano Cases.. that is a stupid thing to say when someone sues you..

"Buy more from us, that will fix everything!"

I'm from Australia aswell and heard about the Ipod Nano also on the radio.
They were saying how they scratched easily so I looked into it and posted.
