I hardly took any sort of stance in defence of Apple. Learn to read and comprehend.
It could conceivably not be Sony's 'fault' either.
It could be some as simple as a protection diode off a new assembly line that's breaking down a lot sooner than it was designed to/should. Who knows.
There could be millions of them out there in things other than batteries.
Time will tell.
Does six weeks (or more) suck ?
Yes.
This same sort of failure often happens with automotive parts, too. Life expentancy stress tests are great, but out in the real world is different.
I see no benefit from taking every single opportunity to bash Apple (like you do and have)
just because you have to wait in line like every one else.
This thread is about nothing more than you having to be treated no more or less fairly than the average peon.
Admit it.
