Apple settles iPod battery lawsuit
June 3, 2005 - 08:46 PDT   Apple has agreed to give US$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, reports AP. The settlement applies to consumers nationwide who bought versions of the digital music player through May 2004. Last year, Apple changed its iPod and now advertises battery life of up to 12 hours for its 20GB model. Apple has confirmed the settlement, but provided no additional comment.  [ Email this story ]
