I pe'd ,that's the only less than intelligent thing I have to say about this :-D

Last week, Apple and its contract electronics manufacturer Foxconn refused to confirm or deny rumours that the iPad was being made at Foxconn's massive Shenzhen factory, which has been hit by a spate of staff suicides.

Hit by a spate of suicides :confused I'm intrigued.

Stung by a rash of worker suicides at a Shenzhen factory and the ensuing PR backlash, the world's largest electronics contract manufacturer is promising 30 percent increases in worker wages, more than originally anticipated.

Hon Hai Precision Industry, also known as Foxconn, is the world's largest EMS company and a key supplier to Apple, HP, Dell and Sony, making everything from PCs to PSPs. During the past several months, 10 workers have tried killing themselves in what is being called a "suicide cluster." Eight have succeeded.

Hot damn,pretty amazing they can just hike everyone's wages by 30%,as my dad just pointed out to me thirty percent of nothing is still the same in China and they've only promised it.

Thanks Baz.

For under $200, I would consider one. But for a pirated copy, the Eye Patch would be a better name. ARRRRGH :-D
