Apple acknowledges iPod nano screen issues

Apple has acknowledged that less than 1/10th of 1 percent of the iPod nanos that have shipped have an issue with their screen quality. Apple has been beseiged lately with reports of users who have had their nano screens either seriously scratched or shattered altogether, with no recollection of any stress placed on the unit. Some of these users have mentioned that they did store their nano in the pants pockets.

Apple is issuing no recall, but have said they have tracked down the problem and ask any who have had this problem to contact Apple. Phil Schiller, Apple’s VP of Marketing, also suggested those concerned with protecting their iPod nano use one of the many iPod nano cases available.
