Apple Refuses to Rebrand iPad Over 4G Capability Issue

By

We recently reported that Apple was cought with its pants down over the new iPad’s non-existent 4G capability in Australia. This resulted in the company being been successfully forced to contact customers and offer them refunds should they want them. However, getting them to rebrand the iPad to remove the false claim is proving to be more difficult, as talks between Apple and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission have ended without a resolution. “The next phase of the case will be determined at a directions hearing this afternoon before Justice Mordecai Bromberg of the Federal Court in Melbourne.”

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission took the world’s biggest company to court on March 27 after it failed to respond to its concerns that the name of its new tablet iPad Wifi + 4G would mislead Australian consumers.
