He's an iPhone 4 related thing I came across the other day, basically went along the lines of... How do you piss off a Chinaman? Tell him his iPhone 4 was made in China.
Was talking to a colleague in a restaurant the other day, he had an iPhone 4, and we got talking about where things are made. Seems that there are people here that don't understand the English phrase "Designed by Apple in California. Assembled in China"...which AFAIK is not translated into Chinese in any Apple documentation or materials. They think Apple products are made in the USA. He started asking me where he could get a genuine made in USA iPhone, as he thought he had a Chinese knock-off. Had to convince him there was no such thing, and that he'd already got the real McCoy. The news about last year's Foxconn suicides was very much downplayed and ignored by state media here.
