Miracle Reported: Apple Contemplates Policy Change
Topic: iPod
Apparently, there is a way to crack Apple's veil of secrecy: Be a third-grader and get upset.
Bay Area CBS affiliate TV-5 reports that Shea O'Gorman, a South Bay third-grader, received an unwelcome reply to her hand-written letter to Steve Jobs suggesting improvements to the iPod nano.
She wrote the letter as a school project and received an unpleasant response from Apple's legal department noting the company does not accept unsolicited product ideas. Shea's mother's description of the girl running into her bedroom to hide is a perfect description of how it usually feels to ask questions of Apple. Hilarious.
According to the report, Apple's legal department apologized to the girl and is contemplating a different policy in its responses to letters from children.
