Questions for ipod nano owners

[Deleted User]

Are these the ipods that had the screen problems?

If so, has the screen problem now been sorted?

What is the battery life like for the 2gb version?

thank you

I bought one in October and the screen is cracked :mad:

What is the reason for this problem? Presumably they are no different to mobile phone screens?

What are the manufacturers saying about it now as I had heard they finally admitted to a 'small batch' of them being defective.

An early batch had screen problems, but these have been solved. It's a good idea - as with any iPod - to buy a protector to prevent scratches.

Battery life is quoted at 14 hours. I'll have to wait until the missus unwraps hers to do empirical testing!

The screen problems were caused by a manufacturing defect, which Apple have now sorted.

The latest 2gb Nano (Dec 06) has a battery life of 24 hrs continuous play. The screen problems were with a previous generation.
