Apple Faces Lawsuit Over iPad Overheating

[Max(IT)]

Only in America can you sue for this kinda garbage...

A few weeks ago my neighbor lost a lawsuit in court...apparently the Justice system found him at fault for hurting another man who fell through his skylight window because that man was trying to break into the house... shucks...I guess you can win in court in NJ even if you attempt to commit a crime...

Sadly true ... are they going to sue the Sun for being .... hot ?

While Apple is fixing that problem of not being able to use the iPad in hot weather, maybe it would also like to fix the problem of not being able to get the thing wet and drop it without damaging it.

I'm gonna start a class action against Sony, Canon, and every other Video Camera manufacturer that has a dew sensor. When I go from a humid environment to a hot one the camera stops working until the moisture has gone

That would be on a list of stupid "features" to strip out. The camera will still work in high humidity, but you won't have a video job anymore if you don't get the coverage. There are ways to prevent fogging inside the device, but a stupid sensor isn't one of them. The most serious problem that I have had is fogging inside a lens, but although the camera can get a lot of moisture on the exterior of the device, operation is still possible and the interior components are unaffected by the moisture. This is when the camera is taken from a cold and dry area into a warmer and humid area. Going from humid and cool to hot and dry should actually reduce the moisture problem, so there's a big problem if the camera really stops working in such conditions.
