Apple hit with lawsuit targeting AppleCare+ refurbished devices
radarthekat said:The article suggests the lawsuit will center on the definition of refurbished. Really? The lawsuit should focus on evidence, if there is any, that proves the refurbished product she received was NOT functionally equivalent to new. I'd be very interested to learn what aspects of an electronic computer device, which runs all the exact same software at the same clock speeds, etc, could possibly be defined as not functionally equivalent to every other one in existence.
Maybe the speaker surface has deteriorated and will not last as long as a new one?
Maybe she can somehow ascertain there's only 4,322,568 more clicks of the Home button where a new Home button would yield more lifetime remaining clicks?
But these are inconsequential, as a person with AppleCare could simple get another replacement should some physical part wear out sooner than a new one would have. And These examples would not be supportive of her case, as functionally equivalent implies a part's current status, not its remaining lifespan. If pressing the Home button on a refurb feels and functions the same as on a new device, then it's functionally equivalent. Even if ten presses later it dies, though that would speak to the equivalent reliability aspect. So let's see if this is where the lawyers go. -
BlackBerry CEO says Apple's security stance puts company over 'greater good'
battlescarred1 said:Chen says: "I think BlackBerry, like any company, should have a basic civil responsibility. If the world is in danger, we should be able to help out." How is Blackberry doing with: Running their company on clean energy, Labor, Recycling, Elimination of hazardous materials, Mining conflict-free minerals. If he truly thinks Apple isn't doing as well as Blackberry to improve their "basic civil responsibility" then perhaps a re-evaluation of his company is in order.
