Logitech Won’t Support iPad Case Bought From ‘Non Official Vendor’

If you’re shopping for something for which you might conceivably need the manufacturer’s warranty, be careful where you buy it.

Fortunately, it has one key feature: it’s made by Logitech. [More]

Chuck was stuck with a broke remote. Out of warranty, it was a joke, its LCD screen croaked, its buttons he blindly poked. Customer service offered him reimbursement, 50%, on his next purchase.
