That's hilarious. I wouldn't be surprised if they did that though. Actually I hope they do, it would be amusing

These type of lawsuits are waste of time. Who really benefits? Consumers or lawyers?

The payouts are always small to each person in the lawsuit while the lawyers laugh all the way to the bank with much larger sum of the award.

Assuming the iphone 4s doesn't suffer from this issue, the decent thing to do would be to swap like for like, then refurb the old 4 series to a usable state and rebrand it.

or, you could piss off customers even more with a derisory $15 that will be tied up in so much shit, you won't bother (or bother to get another iphone/apple product).

Not being funny, but if I was to ever overpay for a product on the scale of Apple, i'd want top notch customer service.

Summary: If Apple ship crap, you're on your own pal.

[citation][nom]omega21xx[/nom]Ok, so you could have sold your iPhone and still get the $15... what's to stop (say me) from cashing in on the $15 when I've never bought one? Not sure they'd be able to tell if I owned one or not, if they could, I'd say Apple has their noses where they shouldn't be.[/citation]

you have to put in your serial number on the claim form

My point was that they say you can still claim if you sold your phone. I don't think many people write their serial number down on things they sell.

But didn't they charge $30 for the rubber bumper to prevent the issue?

Lucky me, I dont own Apple products and dont anticipate ever buying them unless they embrace open standards....
