Yet another lawsuit has been filed against Apple. Nassau Country resident, Mr Avi Koschitzki complains that Apple are ignoring hairline cracks in the iPhone handset’s enclosure, namely at or around the camera module.
Mr Koschitzki says, “Although Apple was and is aware that the iPhones were and are defective, and that consumers have experienced repeated instances of cracked housing, Apple has nevertheless allowed the defectively designed iPhones to be sold to the public”.
Furthermore, Mr Koschitzki joins a number of complaints against Apple, each of them criticising that Apple and AT&T have wrongly advertised the iPhone as being ‘twice as fast’ as its predecessor. Mr Koschitzki argues that the 3G network is overloaded and that iPhone 3G owners are being ‘bumped off’ onto the slower Edge network.
Mr Koschitzki claims, “Based upon information and belief the 3G iPhones demand too much power from the 3G bandwidths and the AT&T infrastructure is insufficient to handle this overwhelming 3G signal based on the high volume of 3G iPhones it and Apple have sold”.
Mr Koschitzki is unhappy with the iPhone software updates released to date, arguing that Apple have failed to address a number of outstanding issues, including the poor 3G reception and third-party application crashes at launch.
There has been so much hype over the iPhone; will such lawsuits and complaints knock consumers confidence in purchasing Apple products? Personally, I’m not the biggest fan following the experience with my first (and last) iPod. Leave us a comment and let us know your thoughts.
