Korea: Apple Recalls Faulty 1st Generation iPod Nano Players

Apparently, the fact that Apple is already selling the 4th Generation of iPod Nanos didn't stop consumer protection agencies in Korea from investigating the faults of the 1st Generation iPod Nanos. In response to 4 complaints filed between December 2008 to June this year on 1st Gen iPod Nanos that overheat and swell, the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards has sent a request to Apple for aggressive collection of faulty units with Lithium Ion batteries made by Chinese manufacturer, ATL. Apple has responded to the request by issuing a recall.
