"It was in my pocket and it broke"
Well considering it's about 1mm thick I'm not surprised.
Who would be so stupid as to put something expensive and flimsy like that in their trouser pocket? Top pocket maybe, but generally a bag of somesort makes the most sense.
Christ people are stupid.

They said it was a flaw in only 1 in 10 of 1% of iPod Nanos sold and not a design flaw.
Still I don't see why it should cost so much.

Why couldnt they just say 0.1%??? At least I think it's 0.1%...

But..isn't that what these small devices are designed for?
If I'm going to have to carry an I-Pod around in a bag then I'd just get a normal sized one.

I also mentioned a top pocket.
If you put it anywhere where it's likely to get bent then it's your own fault if it breaks.

Not many items of clothing have a top pocket.
Doesn't really change the fact it's an utterly pointles contraption, much like the GBA Micro, although at least you can put that in your pocket.

I don't think people are complaining because the device can "bend" (can it?)
They're complaining because the screen is easily scratched after being say, placed in a pocket or something.

Yep agreed, I'm not defending the product in anyway (personally it seems like over-priced crap to me), just saying if you put something flimsy in a place where it's likely to get bent then it doesn't take a genius to realise bad things might happen. :)
