Apple To Cough Up $2.2M Over Misleading Australian iPad 4G Ads

Here in the States, we're usually fine with faux-G being called 4G. T-Mobile does it with its HSPA+ service, and AT&T called it's HSPA+ 4G for a long time too before it rolled out LTE. But I guess people are more picky down under, where the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission had accused Apple of misleading the public with its iPad ads touting 4G service.

According to The Australian, the company has now agreed to pay approximately $2.21 million to make amends, despite the fact that Apple had already agreed to refund customers who thought they would get 4G LTE service with the new iPad.
