In my opinion , she is being very stupid , but its sadly true that there are law suits all over the place , in fact , one American couple actually sued Nintendo when their Wii called their son fat while he was playing Wii fit =p how rediculous is that?

That's ridiculous. If you can't use the iPhone, get something else. Don't be stupid. Get a Blackberry or a normal cell phone.

But many people assert that one of the iPhone's best traits is its ability to function without a stylus, the often-misplaced mini-chopstick required by the Palm Pilot and other earlier hand-held gadgets. Apple created the iPhone with a multi-touch screen, navigated by presses and swipes of the finger. Unlike a BlackBerry or Treo, which has a separate keyboard, the iPhone requires you to type by pressing a virtual keyboard that appears on the screen.


I read the whole thing, and i think that paragraph says it.

It is ridiculous, that is point of the iPhone, to function with no stylus. That is why it is a big seller over the Palm Pilot and Blackberry.

I can understand being frustrated by having to long nails, so trim them. Your nails are not the priority over most of the population. Also, calling Apple sexist is ridiculous. s got to be the stupidest accusation ever. She is also really idiotic to sue, she is going to get her butt smacked in court.

That is new. Funny how people can think of so small problems when they realize the world is in danger.

A quote directly from the article.

She and other women who have long nails -- as well as people of all genders with chunky fingers -- have real trouble typing on the iPhone.


Omfg then don't buy the IPhone, how hard is it to not buy something that you can't use.

This is just a lady who is looking to strike gold over a pointless lawsuite.

Or go buy a 50-cent stylus from the store...

It's people like this that make us all feel better about our own intelligence, though, so there's something.

I hope to get an iphone soon. If I have trouble, I am going to trim my nails before suing the company... lol. Shorter nails are more hygienic anyways!

This is bad? Why not help make someones whole life of financial issues be gone even if its a dumb lawsuit? It doesn't hurt anyone, except of course take away 1/100000000 of the companies money which is just going to be stacked somewhere...

I hope to get an iphone soon.


I hope you can afford a fee of $2000 in 2 years.

All I've got to say is, that's America for you. Even the absolute DUMBEST of cases can be won with the right judges.

This is really reminding me of the lady who sued Wendy's. She sued because she found a toe in her chili. Guess what, she cut her own toe off in put it in the chili.
