New iPad Runs 4G? Not In Australia, Says Consumer Watchdog
One of the selling points for the new iPad has been the fact that it supports 4G, but at least in one market, that 4G promise is facing a challenge. In what might be a case of a storm in a teapot, the Competition and Consumer Commission in Australia has said that Apple cannot advertise its newest tablet as 4G-capable because it doesn't actually work on the 4G network that exists in the country.The regulator plans to take its argument to federal court this Wednesday, where it will try to order Apple to change its marketing of the product. It also wants Apple to offer refunds to any buyers that feel they have been mislead by the advertising.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/n1daIh9md78/
