A high school student would tell you that it is perfection every company tries to achieve even he/she knows it's impossible. We as consumers though knowing perfection is impossible still ask the companies we trust to give their best to achieve it.
First gen iPod had no issues
Even though they technologically groundbreaking, the early iPods had no issues. On the other hand, the negative black screens on the Touch are not something the consumer can or should except as normal. Especially at $400.
Apple has always marketed itself as a superior company, both because it produced a better operating system and a nicer all along product, and it was the un-corporation. "The computer for the rest of us."
As a 15 + year Mac user, I can say that before the iPhone came out, anyway, their products were, pretty much, always satisfactory, if not 100% perfect.
The bugs in the iPhone, and now the Touch, aren't up to long time Apple standards. Near perfection was once the very definition of Apple products.

These are the things I remember being big fusses on here just like the iPod Touch screen problem. I'm not trying to bash Apple or anything but I am bashing the people who go screaming stupid stuff like you just did. Just because you never had any problems before doesn't mean other people didn't have problems and it also doesn't mean that their aren't tons of people who are using their iPhones and iPod Touch's quite happily.
