This thread is about the costs of creating the iPhone. Why not just step back a minute to examine the human costs and let that sink into our collective idol worship mentality.
I think people who criticize 'fanboys' instinctively find idol worshiping abhorrent in some way because of its obvious effects upon society.

For someone preaching against the evils of gadgets (especially later in the thread), you do so in a curious place - on a forum devoted to Mobile Reading (using electronic gadgets)... and you do support the "hate" culture rather than reasoned discussion if you don't see the problem with "fanboi" and also criticise only Apple for the use of various Chinese companies as if they are the only company having their goods manufactured in China... still mustn't let facts get in the way of anti-capitalist rhetoric, better to go for state control for the people... it worked really well for the USSR... so well that China is now heavily Capitalist as well...
