"the iPhone made a hissing noise before the screen shattered, sending shards through the air."

"Earlier this month, Liverpudlian Ken Stanborough told The Times of London that after he contacted Apple about his daughter's exploding iPod Touch - which made its own hissing sound before rocketing ten feet in the air - the company said it would refund the price of the device if Stanborough and daughter signed a confidentiality agreement banning them from publicly discussing the incident."

"an iPhone left in a car reportedly caused a fire that burned the vehicle's seat"

"Apple has tried to keep chatter about these incidents to a minimum by giving refunds to the owners of the destroyed devices, so long as they keep the terms of the agreement confidential."




Crapple strikes again!
