Fire Hazard: Apple Recalls Early iPod Nanos
Apple is recalling some of the first-generation iPod Nanos, warning there’s a slight risk the battery could overheat and catch fire.
“Apple has determined that, in very rare cases, the battery in the iPod nano (1st generation) may overheat and pose a safety risk," the company said. "Affected iPod Nanos were sold between September 2005 and December 2006. This issue has been traced to a single battery supplier that produced batteries with a manufacturing defect. While the possibility of an incident is rare, the likelihood increases as the battery ages.”
