popular demand in China

more Apple stores in China, strong demand of iProducts in China, they buy iPad & iPhone from overseas before official launch in China, this is why short supply all over the world when they just come out of the market.

Whoa there. Let's not get carried away. The short supply more likely has to do with strong demand EVERYWHERE, not just in China. Considering the price of iPhones relative to average salaries and availability on one carrier only (and not the largest carrier at that) in China, pretty tough to say China is in itself causing a global shortage.

China is causing a shortage of everything on this planet.

I don't give a rats ass what China does or what Apple does there. It's not like iPhones are made in the USA and this will be GOOD for us. So he can suck all the Mr. Wang's he wants, but he'd better know one thing: China doesn't fight fair, and we help them. So ****** it.

Wow. And we wonder why people say the US in decline. I'm still trying to make sense of what you just said.
