quality shit or shitty quality? i'm still afraid to replace my powerbook with a macbook pro.

quality shit.
I have a macbook pro. A+.

Hon Hai is better known by Foxconn here in the states. Quality not an issue from a factory perspective (they are very reputable) but if the design/compents are cheap, they'll still suck.

Quality shit.

Honestly, my MacBook is the first reliable Apple laptop I've owned since... ever.

Order all you want. Remember the ipod nano incident? Stick one of these ipod (I sure hope this phone doesn't look like the foto dear LORD) and get scratches. Fun!

Now for the burning questions.

1) Will it support Zune or itunes? Hokay that was just silly.

2) Will it come in stirring shit brown?

3) Can it re-invent the wheel?

4) If it can hold enough memory will we still need our i-pods?

what about the booty? does it have a nice booty?

At this point I could care less about an apple phone. What I really want right now is for the true video ipod to come out. I have been waiting for this thing forever and the waiting is starting to drive me mad!!! Some rumors say that it will be out this month but I heard that before. All I know is if it is gonna be put out this year they are probably going to do it soon to make the Christmas shopping rush. My personal cut-off for Apple releasing any news about the ipod video this year is black friday, after that I think the chances get slim.

Hong Hai Precision Industries (or FoxConn in the US) is like the biggest contract manufacture of consumer electronic device; it is headquartered in Taiwan. They make pretty much all the IPODs, Mac Pros, and maybe 50% of the worlds PC and notebook computer. They got 120,000 employees world wide. Most of the people in the city of ShenZeng China works for Hong Hai. Most readers on the net probably have several Hong Hai built devices and don't even know it.

Who is Hong Hai? Good question, Brian. Hong Hai Precision Industries Ltd. (or FoxConn in the US) is like the evil empire of consumer electronic manufacturing. They make something like 50% of all the worlds PCs and notebook computers. Pretty much everyone has a Hong Hai build product, but no one has ever heard of them.

Hong Hai is based in Taiwan and has major manufacturing in China. There are 120,000 employees world wide. They get about a lawsuit a month from some weird British outfits accusing them abusing workers.

Hon Hai is also known as Foxconn. They sell all kinds of stuff in the US, so you should be able to get an idea about how their product quality is by doing some legwork.
Honestly Giz, how do you not know this?

I have a feeling this is a mistranslation of handheld MP3 players, aka iPods.

well that's good to hear, now i'm not so worried about upgrading.

Hong Hai(Foxconn)'s revenue on Oct 2006 is 2.7 Billion.

They made 2.7 billion in one month.

They have generated 20 billion revenue so far this year.

Their main product line is computer and consimer electronics.

HOw is that?

Hong hai made 2.7 billion last month.

They have made 20 billion USD so far this year.

Their product is computer and consumer electronics.

How is that?

Hong Hai made 2 million revenue last month.
20 billion USD this year and you dont know them

im sure the hard drive on this phone is going to be way to small for me to wanna buy it.

could apple be tapping in to the vonage market?

Why the hell would they go away from Asus? At least people have heard of them for f*ck sakes.

**This just In.........No One Cars about apples shitty phone.**

I oh so love your comics man, that "faster" thing was awsome.

Yes, their "shitty" phone which you have never seen and never used. Brilliant statement.

Well...think about it, people get burned out on ipod stuff when they release 500 accessories that you must have in your home while you already have 4 docks in your bedroom. A phone...great more docks...accessories and other crazy things...I like the idea, but ipod...just burned me out

Now that the iPhones rumour is almost verified, time to start a new rumour:

..so I overheard some talk about a ZunePhone coming out Q4 of next year...

"Why the hell would they go away from Asus? At least people have heard of them for f*ck sakes."

did you not read the posts before you posted? and you still don't know who Hon Hai is?

**This just In.........No One Cars about apples shitty phone.**

They make cars too?

I'm sticking to my statement earlier - Apple doesn't exist.

next gen ROKR, here we come

Also WCD_Thor,

"Why the hell would they go away from Asus? At least people have heard of them for f*ck sakes."

Correctly it is said "for fucks sake."

All: Post says they won the contract. ($$$)

Actually... it's "for fuck's sake" being as it's possessive or something...
