9to5 Mac reports that according to a story in The Australian, Apple has settled the case that has been going through the Australian law courts about its advertising and marketing of the latest iPad as 4G, by agreeing to pay up $2.25 million. The case arose because of complaints from customers in Australia, who said that Apple’s advertising in countries such as Australia and the UK was misleading, because (until it was changed by Apple as a result of the complaints) it still referred to the new iPad as 4G on the Apple website, despite the fact that true 4G LTE is not supported in Australia, or indeed the UK, where advertising authorities are also looking into the matter. 9to5 Mac says that the case is not quite done and dusted yet, despite Apple agreeing to make the payment, as the judge still has to give his final seal of approval.
