Comments on: Samsung Pays $205K for False Environmental Claims About Keyboard http://www.environmentalleader.com/2009/10/22/samsung-pays-205k-for-false-environmental-claims-about-keyboard/ Environmental Leader Mon, 13 Feb 2012 17:25:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: NIGEL MORRIS http://www.environmentalleader.com/2009/10/22/samsung-pays-205k-for-false-environmental-claims-about-keyboard/comment-page-1/#comment-293242 NIGEL MORRIS Wed, 16 Feb 2011 19:55:58 +0000 http://www.environmentalleader.com/?p=26041#comment-293242 @ Carz Why do you say that the claims were sleazy and crass? The article provides no evidence, and does not suggest, that Samsung's claims were invalid, or that the surface used on its keyboard does not inhibit the multiplication of bacteria. Note that the article provides a link to an article that says that Dell makes an antimicrobial notebook with the Agion process and has registered it with the EPA. But another article says that North Face, using the same Agion compound is potentially facing the same type of EPA litigation as Samsung, for not having the Agion process (registered for Dell) registered for use in shoe lining. If you wish to criticise, please support with facts and reasoning. @ Carz
