The situation is even worse with first- and second-generation models, and vocal owners have cajoled Apple into making good on the shortcoming. Fruit Co. announced this week that it will give $50 vouchers and extended service warranties to as many as 2 million customers whose older iPods had batteries that needed to be replaced or didn’t fully charge.
The settlement applies to consumers nationwide who bought versions of the digital music player through May 2004, and those eligible will be contacted by Apple. See, *this* is why you fill out those annoying warranty cards.
