The chances of her actually winning the case slim at best. I don't think Apple will actually settle out of court.

This is so ridiculous! It is just an excuse for people who are too stupid to figure out how to type on an iphone. I have nails, but that isn't gonna stop me from typing on an iphone. Maybe they are talking about the ridiculously long fake nails?

This is so stupid and ridiculous. It is her fault for buying the phone in the first place. Money controls everything these days, and that is exactly what she is doing this for, MONEY. This world is starting to fall apart.

Brings me back to a similar "obvious" case involving a certain fast food chain, a clumsy woman, and hot coffee...

LOL! That is pathetic!

People will do anything for money these days, even embarrass themselves on the news for a chance to win some money.

Yep, I think it pretty much comes down to her being lazy.

I read the article, and it mentions that only the electrical charge in skin works, so a tylus wouldn't do it (but then again, if that's true why would she be asking for them to make a stylus?). And even if it is, true, she could just use a knuckle or something.

Although I don't think this is quite as ridiculous as the McDonald's thing, it's still pretty ridiculous.

A woman sued McDonalds because her coffee spilled on her and burned her. SHe won the trial and won alot of money, haha.

A stylus probably won't be made, but just use something else! Some people in the US just don't use their brains at all anymore...

Well, actually, McDonald's could have just paid her off in the beginning for thousands of dollars. Instead, McDonald's kept taking it to court and eventually they owed her millions of dollars. If only they had paid her off...

She should have used a pencil, a toothpick, anything like that could have worked. What a stupid lady. Apple will probably pay her off to keep the case out of court.

Any honourable company would spend as much money that they need to win the case. If she's suing for $500,000, then spend $1 million to win the case if you need to. They should not let people come up with stupid lawsuits and get away with it.
