Apple sued after iPod touch allegedly injures child.Normally the only time our Apple devices make us hot is when we're looking at photos of ourselves on the screen, but unfortunately for one kid in Ohio, his iPod burn was real. According to a lawsuit filed against Apple, a mother is suing the company after her son's iPod touch allegedly exploded in his pants, causing burns to his leg. Accident, or some self-destruct beta test for the new iPhone?
The suit explains that the iPod touch was sitting in the off position inside the boys pants, when a part of it popped and caused a burning sensation. The boy then stood up and looked down to see that his pants had actually caught on fire.
As a result, his mother filed suit against Apple and 10 employees from the Apple Store they purchased the iPod Touch from, seeking $75,000 for compensatory damages and an additional $75,000 for punitive damages.

i can understand suing the company, why the hell you would sue the 10 people who work there at a store, cause they sold you the thing...

if you can't beat them, sue them.
Now if only my 360 would explode lol j/k. Anyways I know I would be ticked off too especially if anything blew up close to my tea bags. Not sure why she's going to sue the employees, but if they were a-holes to her I guess that's what they get.
