The suits all seem to be a waste of time like the ditz over 200 bucks we all know a price will drop over time. And in a high tech word it drops faster. I feel no pain for her i hope the judge tosses her case out. Companies have the right to enter in to excl deals where by only they have full rights sell and service a item. As for the battery care anoter right of a copany to help 2 protech a copy rigted stuff.

When people bought the I Phone they knew it would be with AT&T at first. That was the deal. This is another reason we need to stop kids from being lawyers.

Frankly, just about EVERYTHING breaks California law...

California is truly a "red" state..a RED TAPE state.

Don't even bring up California. The state of California has been sending letters to my business for years stating that I have not filed California payroll taxes, and billing me for penalties. Numerous times I have written and called, explaining that I never had any employees claiming California residence, and still I get them. Last time I called, the person I spoke to was very rude, and basically said that California can smear my businesses' credit rating. I told him to go ahead, I don't operate my business on credit. What can they do to us? Nothing. We are in Virginia and have nothing to do with their state. The person I spoke to only had one thing on their mind. They told me that a check for $1,200 would make the problem go away. I'm sure some businesses just go ahead and pay it, and this scheme is probably a great moneymaker for California.

"Over the summer Apple was sued repeatedly over the iPhone's lack of an easily user-replaceable battery."


There is only one thing that I can say to that. HA!

[Eric47]

better yet, lets all wear the same clothes, government issued, food, housing....hmm this sounds oddly familiar...

And yet it is still full of too many people.

I am still waiting for the mass exodus, since so many people seem to hate CA, that way I can go back home to San Diego.
