honestly, this thread should be less about apple and more about china.

This honestly has little to do with apple. The point is the buildings in countries such as china and India. Sadly these are the best source of income for most people in china. But this is certainly not new news..the article is just trying to target Apple for some reason.

But yeah, China is doing these same things for EVERYTHING they produce, so they are really the ones at fault here; it isn't a crime to take advantage of low prices when you don't know the work conditions are this bad. Hell, even if you suspect it, unless there is proof there's no reason to feel guilty. Of course, now that there IS proof, they sure as hell better be switching to a more ethical manufacturing plant or things will not be getting better.

They are pretty prominent here(maryland). I wish I could get a better blackberry but Verizon carries sh`it all in brands. I'd have to switch to AT&T which is garbage for where I live. I'm essentially in a dead zone at my house and only the verizon service can get us more than 3 bars at a time. AT&T barely gets one lol

Agreed. I'm enjoying watching Satellite getting shut down though. Because let's face it, some product anyone here has bought was made in one of those horrible sweat shops.
