A few comments: I made my own iPod remote wireless using a RF keyboard and an inline remote. Am I going to get hauled off? Apple needs to be very careful with actions like these among the others they have done recently. It will only further an anti-trust lawsuit against them. Law works both ways. Customers have the right to sue companies for possibly shotty products. And companies have the right to sue others for infringing on their copyright The fact that you can now legally jailbreak the iPod has no bearing on whether or not Apple can sue those who use their patents to make iPod accessories without a license. At least with chargers I would stick with the made for iPod/iPhone label, I was driving up to canada on a mountain bike trip and forgot my charger, a truck stop had one for $1.99 and I plugged it in, and within a few seconds it got very hot and then killed my iPhone. |
