In addition to what other commenters have said: Maybe I missed something (it is a 10 minute video), but how do we know whoever brought in the water-damaged iPad in for repair hadn't caused the water damage themselves? They could have gotten it a bit wet, but not enough to kill anything. I also find the evidence for the iPad never having been worked on before fairly tenuous - I've done repairs using swapped Apple parts in the past (ie Apple original digitizers), and I doubt everybody who does aftermarket repairs uses the same adhesive. Also, this is really a n of 1. So Apple maybe shipped a single crappy refurb. I'm not sure that's cause for huge alarm, or enough to make broad claims about their entire refurb program. I guess what I'm saying is while the allegation might be true, the evidence here seems fairly shaky IMHO.
