The recent lawsuit filed against Apple regarding iPod nano's allegedly fragile screen has some analysts questioning whether the negative publicity will affect Apple's iPod sales. This couples with earlier reports of Nano screens cracking easily, and Apple's acknowledgement that less than one-tenth of one percent of iPod nanos did ship with a problem. Ars Technica, however, put the Nano through a brutal stress test by throwing it from a speeding vehicle at highway speeds, and some Apple fans believe that the latest court case is "a good example of another frivolous lawsuit in a society where many such lawsuits exist." The iPod is "still the name" in MP3 players according to an article from Motley Fool, but despite Apple's reputation for producing elegant products, the Apple brand could receive "a few scratches" as a result, according to the article.
