Confirmed: Apple to Replace Defective 1st-Generation iPod Nanos With 1st-Generation Units (Mashable)

Apple told Mashable it will be replacing recalled first-generation iPod Nanos with first-generation Nanos, not the new ones many had hoped would be sent. Mashable talked with an Apple spokesperson on the phone, who confirmed the company will be sending first-generation iPod Nanos to those whose serial numbers match the units with defective batteries.

When we asked Apple how many of those first-generation iPod Nanos were available for the recall, the company was not willing to reveal that information.

We wanted to know why Apple wasn't more specific about which iPod Nanos would be used as replacements in its original announcement, but the company wouldn't answer that question, either.

Do you think Apple was deliberately being vague about which Nanos would be sent as replacements?
