Interesting read!
Couldn't believe Nokia sold 71 million units in China last year!

Re: iPhones in China? What is the world coming to?
What caught my attention was the $800 for an iPhone in the US if not through a carrier. And people expect to get them for $300?

It will be very interesting to see what Apple do to stop people exporting to the West.

I agree with you. When people hear about wholesale iphones, they believe that because they are being sold in mass quantities, they will be sold for dirt cheap. Any legitimate distributor that handles iphones can't afford to sell you iphones for $300 because it costs more than $300+ to manufacture one.
