You don't argue with the wife, unless you're Apple...
EXECUTIVES send back an iPad that wife made her husband return along with a note reading: "Apple says yes."
IS there nowhere Apple fears to tread?
It's stared down its rivals. It's faced off with authorities. Now Apple is taking on the biggest challenge known to man — a wife who's put her foot down.
As reports flood in that early iPad 2 buyers are experiencing problems, Apple has apparently stepped up its monitoring of product returns.
"Apple is paying close attention to all iPad 2 returns during the first few weeks to make sure there are no major production defects," said Mac Rumors.
And according to one of the site's sources, Apple staff found something they weren't quite expecting.
"One iPad came back with a post it note on it that said: 'Wife said no'," they said.
The returned product, with the note, was flagged as something funny before being noticed by two executives further up the chain.
So how did they respond?
"They sent the guy an iPad 2 with a note on it that said: 'Apple said yes'," the source said.
The nerve!
